I have a TacSol comp for my stainless .22 Ruger.

Can I take off the black finish without damaging the anodizing, or is the black finish the actual anodizing.

Thinking of just using a light sanding job as needed.

Just would like a match with the rest of my pistol.

Can I do it, or does it need to be reanodized in silver?

Thanks!

The black is the anodizing. Don't sand it off unless you want to completely refinish it.

Figured as much. I may just buy another one and use this one for the 10/22...

You can probably find a baked gun paint in a silver color.

They anodize first and then dye it.  That's why you can get stuff anodized in so many pretty colors.  You would have to either paint it or have the anodizing completely redone.

Hmm. Well, that makes a lot more sense...just going to purchase another one I think.

Send it to Victor at US Anodizing and tell him what color you want.
