Thanks. Nice gun. Looks like my trigger guard is gonna need some work. Just by looking at it the ends are not gonna line up with the pre inlet. Dont know yet, I still got to enlarge the hole that the post on the guard goes in. Is it possible to bend it if I need to?

Post by: newknapper on May 01, 2011, 11:16:48 PM: Great lookin gun. Thanks for sharing. I like the way the barrel and lock are. Did you polish the lock with something? I know my lock is dull looking and I would love to get that kind of shine out of it.

Post by: California Kid on May 01, 2011, 11:46:07 PM: Put the lock under your pillow with a quarter. The lock fairies will take care of it while you are sleeping.
Seriously, look in tutorials for lock polishing methods.
