I hate to be the one to rain on the parade, but you've just ruined any collector's interest in that gun.

Kidding, of course! Very nice, every shooter needs a nice coach gun.

Way back when, I viewed the 311 as lower end, even though I couldn't afford a nicer one, like a Fox. Now, its quality is obvious.

And no, it's not going to be mistaken for a hot blue, but it still looks pretty decent.
