Before
 After  I love it personally (especially because it was a free upgrade on a 400 dollar pistol) but I was just curious what others might think. :) |

I'm not a big fan of shiny guns, but that looks pretty good. I like the fact that the safety instructions are gone. I hate that shit on pistols.

My buddy picked up a 229 equinox for $900. I was jealous of the look (good mix of parkerizing and polished) but 1. they don't make the Equinox 226 in 9mm and 2. I don't have 900 bucks to spend especially on something that's not exactly what I want.

I hope you didn't take the serial number off on the other side. If there's one over there.
Looks good though. |

Oh the gun shoots excellent. It's an FN FNP-9 / Browning Pro-9 Never have any jams or misfires and I've put about 6000 rounds of various ammo through it including +P and light reloads without any issue. I'll tear ragged 3 inch holes in a target at 10 yards with my not so accurate reloads all day long. Love the trigger, I think it's 3.5 pounds.
I swung it for free because of where I work we have a lot of machinery here (not exactly PC to bring in gun parts so I won't tell you exactly where) Its a fully tooled plant so I had one of the guys help me mock it up on a precision surface grinder and away we went. :) |

before pic for me
whatever you're into though, I guess it's not a total bling job in that you removed the warning label in the process |
