Vince, you need this to go with your collection...

Here ya go Vince, the pistol to go with your Mexican Mauser collection. I can gaurantee you'll be the only person with one. I think I'd scrimshaw the eagle and snake into the grips to complete it though.
Link to Mexican pistol.

A classic work in progress, it appears.

We may all have to do things like this in the future. That looks much less evil than those blued or stainless versions

Kind of makes me nostalgic for the days when the only finishes routinely used on guns were bluing. parkerizing and plating. To think, chrome was once considered gaudy in some circles !

I think I need a lime green metalflake 64' Chevy w/ 20" wheels and hdraulics that are co-ordinated to perform 'La Cucaracha' along with both pistols. Andele!

Yikes! As the old saying goes, 'sometimes there's no accounting for taste' ahem.

How much is the sellerer offering to give someone to take that? Seriously, if there is not reserve and you get if for say $50, you could always remove the current finish and park it. Remove the finish, with extreme prejudice that is

OMG, it's a Sesame Street Special!

Both of those pistols are just plain wrong, tastefully painting up an match grade comp. AR15 is one thing, but painting up a perfectly good work horse of a pistol is another.
