    No. I'm an FFL. You can send directly for work and I can send directly back. It's considered repair work.

    Also you can email me at CifaldiPrecision@att.net if you'd like.

    It will only matter when you decide how you're going to refinish the gun.

    It's the small details that improve the total package. Kinda like Ed Brown's and Les Baer's guns simple but elegant and damm fine shooters.

    That gun would look good with a hard chrome lower and hot blued slide.

    I actually was thinking bead-blasted lower and blued slide, with parkerized tritium night sights, lol.

    It's carbon steel you can't just leave it be blasted. However you could have it satin hard chrome to get the same look just like P2W said.

    Oh, that one's carbon? Yeah, that wouldn't work then. Hard chrome it is, then.

    Edit-
    Is that an older 1911? Seems like most of what I see new on the market now is stainless rather than carbon.

    Personally I would do a bunch more work to it since it was a mil spec and all that's been done to it is a Beavertail and bobtail. It could use new sights, a trigger job and ambi safety or single-sided your preference but high rise either way. Do a satin finish on top gloss finish on the side of the slide and do a French line with ball cuts. Simple and elegant.
