Not a common pistol these days, but i'm sure a bunch of folks on this forum will be familiar with it. I bought it ages ago as a shooter. It has a few thousand rounds through it, but is still mint and completely stock.
Wanted to see if someone could perhaps talk some sense into me...
It just so happens that I'm in my "modding" phase right now. Hence, wondering what I can do to "improve" this pistol a bit. For one thing, I was never quite crazy about the rear sight. I have seen others install after-market sights on these. Something low profile for casual shooting. But for the life of me, cant quite see how they get it done without cutting into the slide.
Another aspect, I might be interested in improving is the finish. Current finish is certainly pretty, but in my estimate, not very durable. Thinking about doing something like a battle worn finish I've seen around recently. What do you guys think? Who would be able to do that?
Finally, I would like to lighten the trigger up a bit. For a single action pistol, the current trigger is pretty heavy at 4lb. Not sure who I would trust to get this done.
Thoughts?
