I've got a 1969 Colt National Match ( #33313 ; pre Gold Cup) with a really pretty awful blue finish, or I guess it could be called the remnants of the original blueing. The slide has been cold blued and is mottled and faded as that stuff will do.
So I bought it thinking that for the price I'd send it to Ford's and have it reblued. It's in pretty good shape overall.
But I've seen some nice looking nickle plated 1911's (CockedandLocked - get in here!) and started to think about how it'd be to have ane that way. Ford's price is about the same either way.
I'm hung up with the idea and doing nothing because of being hesitant. I need some inspiration!!
