Colt Finish...?
 
Have had a few guns in my time, but i've got to agree 100% with gp. The Colt will scar with a fingernail...shoots excellent...but Law'd a'mercy fella's need to be a leetle tougher...:(

and you didn't believe me did ya ???????

must have a Rockwell hardness of a cheap convenient store pocket knife , or less

honestly SG that’s why I don’t own a colt ,I didn’t make it up ,I had three at the time I bought a new colt officer acp in stainless , bad very bad scratches appeared on it out of no where ,then I finger nailed it and about crap my pants , I sold all three ,never to own one again

Yep I know it’s a hard one to swallow ,and you probably thought I was nuts after reading it so many times

Sorry you had to experience it ,to make it more believable


you might keep this one ,but i bet you have second thoughts about forking out that kinda cash for another one
