Eye candy for true collectors

I didn't notice anyone having posted this yet, and I want to make everyone gets a chance to drool.
This can be yours for only $375, but I won't tell you where, because I don't want to be responsible.

Id buy it!!!!! But not at that asking price. They would have to let it go for $1.
 
Anyone else recall the late 80's early 90's when Springfield Armory marketed these colored guns? The USPSA Nationals back then had a lot of them, especially the girls with the Pink ones. An engineer friend advised me that the coating Springfield was using was actually a fantastic finish with outstanding durability and lubricity qualities. I recall seeing Gold, Pink, Blue (2 or 3 different shades) Green, OD Green, Purple, and white. There may have been more but within just 3-4 years they disappeared.
 
i'd buy it and ever so carefully clean that thing up and get it reblued. kind of a "Pretty Woman" kind of vibe if you know what i mean.
 
Many of the old British Military rifles had literally "painted" metalwork. Hi temp for sure, but paint nontheless. When stripped some had been blued underneath.

Some years ago I came across a WWII German Mauser that had British proofs. The price was cheep, so I bought it. The metal was painted black and the stock brown. When I say "painted", I mean with a brush. Some of the black was on the stock and some of the brown was on the barrel....LOL.

A little elbow grease and a some mild paint remover and underneath was a blued gun (90%) and an awesome black walnut stock. All parts were SN matched.

Never know about these things.

Oh, did I say that the cheep price was $16.00 shipped to my house (With 03 FFL)!!!
