Here's one I did for a regular client. I don't always get to see the finished project, so this was a nice surprise to see this.

Very nice! Was this a new gun to begin with? I guessing this was stainless and not French gray. What did you use to do the cutting? Was it necessary to remove any lettering? So many new guns today have so much lettering and unnecessary info on them that it is difficult to get a nice layout.

This was a carbon steel Colt that was nickel plated afterwards. I did not do the grips. Not sure who did them. I do believe it was a brand new series 80 colt. Not sure the exact model.
