Just sent this one off to a young man who's serving our country in the Navy. Thanks for your service Frank, hope you enjoy it. I had some help on these pics, so they're better than my usual. Checkering by the folks at EGW.

What kind of finish is that? Some of the pictures make it look kind of shiney while others make it look a little duller. Can't tell if it's a painted finish or just a deep black blue job.

Hi Greg, it's a blue.

Polished flats and matte on the balance. The reality is I couldn't make up my mind when the gun shipped and we kept the finish open. Then I was too excited to consider options when Don announced that the gun is ready for finishing so I just picked blue. :D

Very nice. Don has my Mil-Spec right now. I think I'll go with the blue also.
