Kimber Stainless II chambered in 9mm (flame suit on)

Added night sights, trigger job to 3.5lbs...looking for some advice on duracoating or getting it refinished. Too much silver for me..

Any forum members here able to do so or anyone used Duracoat?

i have fired a few kimber's already that a friend owns..... They are smooth, light and balanced.... One had the Crimson trace laser grip and i am not to sold on that, think i will use the $300 for ammo and reloading equipment instead

What did you do to get your trigger pull down to 3.5#, if you don't mind me asking? Nice Kimber!

Duracoat is great. I'd do the slide and controls Black and leave the frame silverleasantry: There is a person at our gun club that does duracoating. $75,00 for a handgun. Slide only would be around $40.00. PM me if interested and I'll get you more Info.

I'm no gunsmith, I took it to a sporting good store (Charlie's) and told them what I wanted. It was $105 + tax.
I can probably dig up the receipt for an item # if that would help you out?

If it is truly Stainless, you might want to look into Parkerizing (May not have spelled it right)

Nah, was just wondering. I'm a bit of a 1911 snob so I tend to ask such questions to ensure nobody is walking around with the hammer ready to drop.

I'm glad you used a reputable 'smith instead of Dale's Barnyard Boutique.

No, I was thinking about going the cheap skate route and found several do it yourself vids and articles. But as much as I like to save $ I didn't want to mess with the hammer and have an AD/ND or have it fail when needed.
