Sling is just thick cotton grosgrain ribbon, QD Attatchments can be found all over the place, and so can the strap adjustment buckle, all for super cheap.

>The stitching on the strap is a little difficult, but other than that...

Nah man, not at all. The real item obviously uses a machine, however you can achieve similar results with some scrap leather (Buy "Vegetable Tanned" leather for crafting, takes dye well and is very strong, you may even find a "Belt Blank" kit already cut into a nice neat strap) and some "leather lacing chisels" also known as Pricking Irons. Simply lay out where you want your stitch-box, double your leather over, line up the fork, smack it with a hammer (into a wooden backstop), and there you have it, nice evenly spaced stitchable holes. From there, you just dye the leather however you prefer (Leather Dye works great, but in a pinch, wood stain works fine and double-brewed coffee can work too), finish the edge with a little bees wax and an edge slicker and hand sew it together with some Waxed Thread and some robust Leathercraft Needles. (I might even lay down a layer of contact adhesive between the leather-strap-leather sandwich for additional hold while sewing). Just take your time and be patient with layout and cutting and it would make for a great afternoon project. For a tutorial on stitching leather neatly, check this out and this edge slicking tutorial. Bonus; you can dye the leather and buy whatever color grosgrain and hardware you want to match or contrast to your heart's content.

This isn't /r/guns but it probably doesn't hurt to post a description anyways.

This is my CZ 75 SP-01, manual safety model, in 9mm. I've done a few things to it since I got it and I absolutely love it now, even more than I did when it was new. Changes include:

• CZ-USA Full Size Cocobolo Half-Checker Grips
  
• LPA SPR Serrated Target Sights
  
• CGW Stainless Steel Guide Rod Full Size
  
• CGW 12# Recoil Spring "Red"
  
• CZ Custom 75B Extended Firing Pin
  
• CZ 2075 RAMI Firing Pin Spring Factory
  
• CZ 75/85/SP01 Spring Main/Hammer 13 LB
  
• CZ Custom Grip Screw Hex Blue
  
  In addition to this I also spent an hour with some metal polish and a wool wheel to smooth out the bearing surfaces on the slide and frame.
  
  Total cost of the setup (including tax paid at the LGS and shipping for all of the parts) is given here. Note that this doesn't include the cost of tools, including a rather expensive rear sight pushing tool from CZ Custom.
  
  Overall I love the gun. It fits great in my hands (with the stock grips and even better with these CZ-USA Cocobolos), I love the CZ signature low bore axis, and while it's a bit on the heavy side, I find that to be perfect because this is my first pistol so I appreciate the weight helping me with recoil while I get used to the gun. I'm not a great pistol shooter by any means but while I won't be winning any bullseye matches any time soon, I have no problem keeping my shots on a human silhouette at 15 yards (the longest range that my LGS has for pistols).
  
  Downsides after the changes that I've made are that the uncheckered parts of the grips get pretty slippery when your hands get sweaty, and while I absolutely love the sights at the range, they're terrible in low-light and no-light situations, which is fine because this gun isn't meant for self defense use, it's just a range toy.
  
  Next pistol will probably be a 75B, possibly an SA, and I'll likely move the cocobolo grips over to the new pistol and then polish the barrel and trigger to turn it into a pretty gun, while swapping in some thin aluminum grips with grip tape to the SP-01 and make it a bit better for competition shooting, which I would like to get into in the near future.

No problem. You'll probably be cleaning lint etc mostly from it if you plan to carry it around. I tend to go a little overboard when I clean my guns, but I typically don't clean my rifles/shotguns all that frequently and will go between multiple thousands of rounds before I do.

When I clean my guns I use a mat like this to absorb oils etc and this to get all of the black carbon out of it. I use these to clean the bore/inside of the barrel. I use these and these for the hard to reach places that still have something building up on them.

When you're done cleaning everything, you'll want to make sure you put oil/grease on all the components that come in contact with other parts. Basically if it rolls oil it, if it slides grease it. I use this on the slide/rails where they contact each other and use this in most other places. Then I'll wipe down the exterior with this.

Really all you have to make sure you do is get most of the debris out of the gun, and make sure you have oil on surfaces that create friction or need some kind of rust preventative coating.

Got the G43 in mid-late December, perfect companion for my G17. I've ran a hair over 2k rounds through it so far, love it, shoots real well suppressed. I have a few more things I want done on it before I call it done, I won't go all out like my G17 since it's one of my conceal carry guns. I do want some front and front-top serrations done on the slide, and the rear factory serrations deepened a bit more. I'll most likely go with the same matte black Cerakote I had done on my G17, which is H-190 Armor Black.

Beautiful gun, but the hand stop and tied sling look difficult. Have you considering moving the hand stop up and using a QD swivel mount directly into the hand guard? Easy to detach. Magpul QD Quick-Disconnect Sling Swivel https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00HKBSQ26/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_yR0KDb1XFKQQP

i found one for $39 shipped prime. so i bought 5 of them :)

its really good quality. you will need to use blue loctite for the knob because it gets loose easily. once you loctite that thread, its perfect!

This throw lever is seriously amazing! I broke one but it was when I took a spill down into a creek and my rifle just kept going. But for $20 you get 2 of them and all I did was put blue Loctite on the threads of the wheel thing and it's absolutely rock solid! And it's nice and big, and will fit any other scope every made basically.

Scope on the top is the UTG Bug Blaster, Its a good scope for the Money and holds Zero Perfectly

3M makes safety glasses with antifog coatings that help a lot. I had these when I worked in a dairy plant and they worked really well.

Of course, a lot depends on what shape and size your hands are.

Mine are medium/large and the 92FS fits like it was made just for me. I rock the Hogue rubber grips without the finger grooves and it feels amazing.

These are the mounts

They work well. The trigger lock is a little sloppy and does allow the gun to wiggle but it seems secure.
