      Thanks D, I stole the colors from the interweb. Pretty proud.

        Refinish as in anodized and nitrocarburized, or spray on (ceracoat, etc)?

        Can you call out where the bob/de-horning work was done?

            Thanks, I meant point out the places on the gun that were bobbed, not where you were standing when the work took place. Looks like a pretty even finish. Any tolerance issues after the coating? My wife's EMP is a pretty tight gun.

                Bruss, that's the factory MSH I rounded off from the checkering down. I shaved the frame as close to the MSH pin as I could get as well. Started with a dremel, then hand filed, then 800 sandpaper, then 3000.

                The finish is holding strong. Tolerances are similar to before cerakote. I just had to smooth out the rails a bit for fit.

                  Looks good. I like the grips too.
                  Sorry, not sorry.

                  Dear autocorrect, I'm really getting tired of your shirt!

                    Where did the grips come from? I am a huge superman fan and would love to pick up a set.
                    Thanks

                      Looks like a really nice job especially for something done in your garage

                      but unless that blue matches his outfit...
