If they are on stainless, you use RED Scotchbrite with moderate pressure following the grain of the metal the complete length of the frame. Do not stop the stroke in between and do not go across the grain. No circular movements at all. For the matte surfaces, use 2000 grit or finer sandpaper...

My haul this week. A beautiful 2022 SA SS Mil-Spec and a 2025 Kimber Micro 9 Lipsey. The SA had a huge honkin' idiot scratch that I gently removed...

Scored AGAIN today! This 1982 Colt 9mm Combat Commander...

I don't disagree, but it doesn't work in my mind. Ruger makes a fine 1911 and has done for years; hell, I even owned one. But the cast frame thing was just constant distraction in my head.

I have friends who love the 1911 that think I'm crazy for limiting myself. But here are my absolute requirements for a 1911: 1. NO FIRING PIN SAFETY 2. Internal extractor 3. Forged frame and slide All three must be met for me to even LOOK at one, let alone consider for purchase. We all have...

Another 2-fer today! A 1981 Colt Government and a Fusion XP-Pro...

Not a Springfield, but for $200 including a fresh box of hollow points, I couldn't resist. This 1981 Llama .380. Took it to the range today and put a couple hundred rounds through it and it functioned perfectly! Cleaning it now. Disassembles exactly like a 1911.

Personally, I wouldn't open carry. If I was OC standing in line at Dunkins' and someone walked in with nefarious intentions I don't want to be the first target.

Just got it today, xferred in from my out-of-stste LGS. Can't wait to get it to the range this weekend! Updated pictures...

ANOTHER LGS score today! Been looking for one of these for years! It's on its way to my LGS in MA from my other LGS in NH as we speak. Can't WAIT to get it to the range. A 2005 1911-A1 Trophy...

NEW TO ME TODAY! Bul Armory 3" 1911 in 45ACP, factory case AND the Magnum Research knife was still with it...

@Lab4Us If you were to take a look in my basement, you'd probably disagree...;)

Another day, another LGS score. A 2017 EMP Lightweight. Facrissake, this is four in the last two weeks and 12 since the first of the year! I think I may have a problem...

Another visit to my LGS, another DAILY DOUBLE! 2025 Mil-Spec that has seen very little use, and a Rock Island 1911-A2 Sub-Compact BBR 3.10 in 9mm...

My latest courtesy of my LGS...

Here are just a few of mine...pick one...;)

ANOTHER 2-FER day courtesy of my LGS! Another Mil-Spec and a Really nice Ruger 10/22 with 3 mags, Vortex Vanquish scope, sling and soft case!

Another GREAT DAY at my LGS! This 2022 Emissary. Now it's OFF TO THE RANGE! Gee I love retirement!

Scored at my LGS. Two SA 1911, one an A1 (2017) and the other a Mil-Spec (2024) both have had little use. AND a 1940 Remington Model 62a!
