Very cool, Bob! Thanks for posting that link. Have you got any detailed images from during the build? I'm curious to see how your TIG welded scope mounting points came out. Mine were a PITA, but they are very strong. Interesting information about the recoil booster. I haven't had a chance to take mine to the range yet so I don't know how mine will cycle.
Scott, have you had a chance to fire yours with the new ammo and springs?
I finally weathered my grips and bull barrel so here's how it looks now:

I'm pretty much finished I think, although for the sake of accuracy and obsessiveness I'm building a plastic grill in three parts from the DEC cylinder cover replicas. And I realize I have to do something about the sight greeblie. Frankly, I wish they'd never added it, but if I want to make any claims to accuracy I have to acknowledge it.
