Since the barrel is also a consideration, I thought I'd add these pictures from the same gun. The barrel appears to have once had a finish

Since it's my carry gun, it gets quite a bit of use. Plus I periodically compete with it in USPSA too. So it sees a lot of shooting and a lot holster wear.

Three years old.

Four dozen IDPA and IPSC matches

One National Class Championship (IDPA ESP Sharpshooter - 2007)

13,000 rounds downrange

I love this gun, but her knickers are starting to show a bit more than a like.

And no, that isn't rust along the top edge. I don't know why, but the bare metal showed up with a small amount red tint. The muzzle is a little dirty from my RO duty at the range yesterday, but everything is pure wear.

I'd certainly concede to that one. Looks like it was dragged on a dirt bike course

Nice!

Wow Gryff - that one sure has seen some action since you showed it to me about a year ago in Matt's class

Wow...pride and humiliation all in the same moment. Nice thing about shooting an ugly gun well...everyone is usually too respectful to laugh outright.
