Rescue guns are some of the best.....
 
I bought a Colt DE for $400. The gun may not have been rode hard, but definitely put up wet. It had been stored for years in a holster. The finish was all but gone and the slide was pitted. Well done!

I had it refinished and it was awesome.

Wow. That looks amazing! Always loved the Colt Deltas. Just helped a friend work up a Colt Delta Gold Cup that someone had been abusing for a long time. I need to get some pics of the before and after. It was unreal how nasty it was.
