Default CBOB Heresy...

Think I may have committed CBOB heresy but... I love the results!!
Got my new CBOB just a couple weeks ago (last post) and totally fell in love with the gun. Came with everything I wanted...
3-dots Novak-style sights, skeleton trigger, wood-grips, etc.
The problem... kept looking at my Valor and I realized that along with it being a SHOOTER, what I really loved about the pistola was its clean, simple lines plus its bead-blasted, one-tone matte finish!
Well, off-went the 'polished flats' and 'two-tone' look and here's what she looks like now... Hope I'm not offending any of the 'purists' but... I'm in love!!!

You must have us confused with antique collectors.

I like the new look, never did like the "raw" look of the "rounds". Now I see more money being sent for my Cbob...arghhh.
