    Ken,

    Not good pictures. It is raining here EVERY day so I had to go out in the blazing sunlight and take these when I could so there is an issue with shadows. The grips have been changed out since the ones that came with the gun and appear to be original to the gun are too worn and damaged. The pistol is in better condition than what the pic's show. Some of what looks like pits is grease and dust. I'm not really set up for photo's right now but did my best on these.

    Disregard that 1st photo from the above post. It is a picture of a Black Army.

    But while on that subject this is the BA frame that had the Navy slide that I sold. I had a BA slide from a parts kit that I bought years ago. The slide had no finish left on it and someone had sprayed it with black paint. I removed the paint and cold blued the slide and put it on this frame. Now while not a museum piece it does match better now than before and in my opinion did OK for cold blueing. The slide is the only thing that was cold blued. The frame and other parts have not been touched, at least by me.
