    your thoughts on this pump

    what do you guys think, should i polish her up and leave her chrome and shiny? I am not usually a fan of chrome or really shiny, but i have seen couple of polish mags that loooked damn sexy. so should i polish or with some color on her?

    The polished look is nice but it is hard to maintain. If you want to keep aluminum having the polished look it is a constant battle, because it oxidizes immediately. The stainless and chrome plated parts just need a bit of rubbing every so often to keep the finger prints off.

    Personally, I would anodize the aluminum parts to a favorite color. It would be easier to maintain.
    Except for the Automag in front, its usually the man behind the equipment that counts.

      I've got some raw polished parts on my pump mag - rail and S/S body

      These were matched with a nickle plated grip frame and ASA

      Both seem to hold the finish and shine really well

        That's my old pump mag minus the freak back, wwa 2" tip and single trigger frame. Looks like a different valve as well. When I got the rail, the back was dented and the chrome was flaking all over. I removed the chrome except for a few spot inside where I didn't want to mess up the AGD specs and evened out the dent. I've seen it change hands a number of times since I traded it on peanutbutter nation. I'm happy to see it back in good hands.

        I'd change the frame and sight rail since it's the only chrome on it and get it anodized something sexy or at least highly polished and protected with clear anno.

          She for sure has found a home and will be staying put, I do have the docs adapter and barrel and single trigger frame. Don't know why but it would not fire with that frame. I think I have come up with a color combo I have to get done. I like the look of the rail on it, so unless I get another just like it, in a different color its going to ano. Anyone watching this if you like chrome and would like to trade let me know.

                Like I said...it's an old pic and I wish I kept the freak barrel . After the pic, I put the sight rail on and sanded off the anno on the foregrip before trading it. Hated the sight rail. It drew blood a few times. The mag has been to PBN, ebay, and then some. The lousy sanding job on the foregrip is the give away.
