Thats a very nice build. I especially like how the parts on that gun cost twice as much as the base WE its built on.

Seeing as I woke up early (thanks kitty), I sanded the sides of the slide this morning . Why the heck not?
I had the sand paper wrapped around a piece of hard flat plastic to make sure that only the sides were sanded.
(mounting a light did scratch the engine enamel off the rail)

Just finished aging my KWC 1911. Shame my camera is too crappy to really do it justice.

I'm in the midst of re-finishing the frame. Before I sand/ scuff it to prep for some Tactical Black DuraCoat, I thought I'd give it a little polish for a temporary reverse two tone.

Thanks guys
Polished alloy frames discolor way faster then slides which is why I was going to paint it.
The reverse two tone is growing on me though, maybe I'll try some Stainless DuraCoat, still be two tone and will not discolor.
Might even do my Kimber in that too, it's frame discolored in just a few days from handling.
Before it started to turn grey it looked like this.

The front strap and right side near the safety and now dingy dull grey with a hint of a finger/palm print pattern.

Turok, sexy kit.
How is yours for rust, my friend just got a Hurricane Kimber Kit-- the black LAPD SWAT version and his was rusty-- barrel, chamber, recoil spring, basically everything had rust issues.

I've seen a number of rust issues with the Hurricane kits. The slide guide and the slide stop are the most notorious pieces that I've seen. Clean off existing rust with some WD-40, clean off any residual WD-40, and coat it with silicone oil to prevent (reduce) it from happening in the future.

That's what he is doing, just sucks when you are shelling out a pretty penny for a higher end kit and you get it and its all rusty. I know they are coming over by boat and you have all the temp/humidity changes, salt water mists etc, but I think for the cost of the kit they could have better packaging. A quick Youtube search revealed rusted kits is a common problem with Hurricane doesn't seem to matter where you buy it.
