We are now running on a new, and hopefully much-improved, server. In addition we are also on new forum software. Any move entails a lot of technical details and I suspect we will encounter a few issues as the new server goes live. Please be patient with us. It will be worth it! :) Please help by posting all issues here.

If you had said it came from the factory like that, I would have believed you. Good work!

Looks great! Add's some nice contrast to the gun and sets yours apart from the others. I like Individuality, and you have achieved that! Nice Job!
Oh and a nice thumbs up to Dremels. Otherwise your hands would be hurting like crazy after all that polishing!
The dremel definitely made things easier. I used vinegar and a green scratch pad to remove the bluing, then hand polished it with Mothers for a few hours before I broke out the dremel for details and a final polishing.
My original plan was to strip it down and refinish it, but I might leave it shiny, for a while at least.
