That's the one I'm using as my test model.
It's not abused but is shot the most and used for holster work ( in the privacy of my bedroom obviously)

No worries about damaging the finish and interesting to see how it holds up.

We were lucky down here as Sportsmangun and others had these very cheap initially.
Which didn't stop me from getting some normal price ones first!
Stupid.

A chap on UBC has done some interesting work on his blued model to make it look more like the
real steel blue.
I think it works but he is braver than me!
