Dude, I'm not big on polished guns but it looks pretty hot just like that. You really might consider just having it clearcoated.
Just got done polishing my Classic RT. *big pics*

Thank you guys
Im not 100% sure what I want to do either.. I love the shine. After I fix a few spots it will look awesome in person. But im going to set up a anodizing station and tinker with that so chances are its going under

I dont like the body covering the valve.
Im going to cut more off the body I have coming.. as much as I can to the on/off screw.
Same with the front.. with the new body im just going to cut it either up and down as close to the barrel o rings as I can or do it on an angle again.
I really dis-like the cheese grater.. and my intentions were to polish the entire valve and have whats on there now (serials.. warning text.. ect ect) lazer engraved back on.
I need to go pick up Dremel bits today to get in all the tight spots and fix some little areas.Comment

I was going to ask you why you cut the front off,... I like the looks of the classic R/T body.
However,.. your move to cut the back of the body,.... good one.
I did that to 2 of mine and putting an x-valve on my R/T to sport a ULT and the LV X was the best thing for it.
I think I had to widen the spot for the sear to come up into the body under the on/off. But it works awesome. Same body used in the videos of my EP kit.

I think my next mag is going to be sand blasted with glossy black parts on it.
I was surprised how nice the sand blasting came out too.. it was perfectly smooth and all.
Im gonna have to invest in my own small sand blaster
Im hoping by the new year ill have my anodizing station up and going and buy the right stuff for polishing.
Im self employeed with my uncle. We just do general investing (buying in bulk and selling), credit card processing (little attnetion needed from me) and other stuff. So I have all the time in the world to do my own thing. And we just got 800 square feet of warehouse space (two overhead doors) that im going to use for automotive detailing. But anodizing is going to have to squeeze in there too
... and maybe a bed
