Celebrating our 20th anniversary together this year, she got a Ti cylinder installed about 10 years ago...traveled many miles together. If you ever wondered what is under that nice baked on clear coat layer it is just ugly gray aluminum....

Poor safe queen!
That's is awesome. I recognize the summers that gun has survived. A constant companion. I bet if it ever starts telling stories you will drop it on a lake.

And I thought mine had peeled a bit. Good grief!

Those electroless nickel 442's were nice. One of my best friends smooozed me out of mine about 20 years ago.

I’m digging it - need to snag some strips and a good aiwb, touch up the sights with paint to make them more visible, and that’ll probably be it. Side plate hasn’t even been popped off judging by the screws, and I don’t even know if it makes sense to put in an Apex kit.

I never messed with my J-Frames much. I usually spend a few minutes working the rebound slide surfaces, the frames studs and the cylinder yoke .... that usually results in enough smoothness to do any magic I'm likely to do with a J-Frame. If that's not something you're familiar doing, just dry-fire the piss out of it.

That EN finish is surprisingly durable if you give it just a modicum of care, too.

I might touch up the rebound, but that’s about it. I’ve never had an EN finish, even after reading about then for years. I’m pretty happy to get this for a horse-traded P226 (.40) and $150 going my way.

My pair of M&P 340's. And the holsters that actually get used, situation dependant.

May I ask you what ammo you carry on a daily basis? I've been salivating over M&P 340's for years and someday will own one.
