Well, maybe not quite so ugly after all. Same frame, barrel and patridge front sight. Different shroud and grip. Still shoots the same great groups!

Not readily apparent from a casual glance is the EWK adapter that allows a VH shroud to be mounted on a pork chop frame. I’ve used this configuration before, and it definitely works! The excellent Hogue grip adds to the overall appearance. I have to say that the DW 15-1 trigger is the lightest of all DW’s, and probably contributes to it’s excellent accuracy.

It definitely does work! I still have one of the EWK prototypes of that adapter. He made a couple tweaks from this one, and a week or two later, it was into production! smile

If I recall, Eric didn't have a complete Porkchop gun to work with, but obtained measurements somewhere. He made a couple prototypes from his measurements. Here is a couple photos of the prototype he sent me from that trial fit...

I wish I had bought a bunch of those adapters. I have 2 or 3 but I have a bunch of porkchops, 8s, 11s,12s, 14s, 15s, 14-1, 15-1 Mkii, and Mkiiis. I like them ☺️.

Well, I went back to the powerwood grip again on the ugly bastard. Just feels better, and I like the overall look. Very balanced. What did I do with the pretty grip? Back on the W12 which creates a very nice appearance and balances well also.IMG_1599.jpegImage Enlarger
