Im thinking of getting it bead blasted to get a Satin Finish

Would that bee a shame?

No collector value to the gun, just great shooters and last probably longer than you. If you want a bead blast go ahead. Nice non shiney finish.

Personally I would go the other way, High Polish!

But, that's just me.

because of the gun regulations in my country, it will take at least 1 md before i can collect the gun.

Anybody knows if this model is with squere or round butt?
