Greeting's to all! I thought I would throw in a before and after pic of my 39-2. She was in poor shape when I picked her up...... but for 80 dollars I didnt really care. I Sandblasted the slide, Smoothed out most of the hard edges that were dinged to hell on the frame...Had to reshape the dovetail because there was a huge gouge in it, Polished the barrel, throat, trigger and built a compensator (mostly for looks). She is now wearing Duracoat titanium blue and matte black. And to finish the transformation some Carbon Fiber grips. This was my first attempt at working over a pistol, I am by no means a gunsmith or anything close but I wanted to see what I could do. Everything was sanded by hand with different grits of sandpaper and polished with a dremel tool, The compensator was made from steel tubing and a cutoff wheel. I completely disassembled and reassembled the entire pistol by using the parts diagram S&W sent me in the mail. Total cost of materials including the grips...90 dollars. Hope you enjoy my workmanship!
