My 1301 is FDE—which is really more like a bronze color to my eye. I preferred the green but didn’t want to wait, when all models were tough to find. Recently received the LTT upgrade kit, which comes with black furniture. I’m thinking of painting the new furniture to match the factory color. Not really looking to paint the barrel/receiver, but probably will paint the tube extension…
Does anyone happen to know of a color that is close enough to the Beretta FDE that it won’t be off-putting? I’ve never painted a gun, but I know there’s lots of info out there about how to do it.
It’s not a safe queen, I have no plans to sell, and I’m not terribly fussy—but guns that shoot good *and* look good are even better than those that only shoot good.
