    I think that will be the end of the work on this for a while. I've decided to leave the paint as it is for now. It looks how a pistol of this age should do.

    Thanks

    Oh dear Mark, you know where this can lead? When I rebuilt mine I did the same with the barrel ready for reblueing, The main frame needed reanodising or painting so I stripped it to the alloy and then buffed and polished it to get a good surface for the finish. Problem was it looked so trick with a polished barrel and frame I never did any more and now have a seriously blinged 65! I know its sad but I like it!
    Best regards
