I still have to mate the frame and grip lines at the top-sides, even out the top, contour the thumb-safety, and blend in the entire bottom. Got that far and discovered I was out of both 600 and 1200 grit paper, cold-blued it to keep the rust off til I get to the Auto-Paint store to get the wet/dry.

New pics, top half blended and contoured. Sorry, but the lighting isn't good. Take more tomorrow.

Hey Dave, What did you end up finishing the finish (I know that's a strange sentence) with? did you just blue it to death or coat it with something else?
