Ok ok, I can't take it anymore... I confess, when I first got my brand new Colt GoldCup on the very same day, thru shear carelessness and clumsiness I managed to put a nice half inch flashy scratch on it's frame. While field striping the pistol I let the slide release lever swing down and take a swipe at the bead-blasted area just above the trigger. From what I hear it's a common mistake, except that I managed to do it to a $1000 Colt GC.
Is there anyway to repair this, short of sending the pistol back to Colt? If so, what would be a ballpark price for the repair? Also, I know this is a long shot but can someone recomend a good place that can do it.
