sounds like a nice gun, easy enough to fix,touch up the very bottom of the anodized grip frame.......sometimes but seldom does anything like Birchwood casey or such "Aluminum Black" and we used to just remove the grips, tape the grip frame ( entire gun can go in a plastic sack) and simply "dust" ( spray paint) the bottom with Krylon flat black paint, takes about as long as it took to type this up.........Brownells also sells a spray coating called "Alumhyde", but the can will last you FOREVER, we used it all the time in the shops... 8) :roll: :wink:
