I've had Gimp2.
Hmmmm, I can see a CM40 and CW45 in my future.... black of course.
I really like those in all black
Pretty amazing how the black cerakote changes the whole look of the guns. Doesn't have that "economy model" look to them.
I have popped my Kahr cherry.

Sweet photo bassgunner!!
The leather background is a nice touch.
Photography is one of my other hobbies too. I might need to pick your brain on how you set up this photo.
My favorite firearm.......................

That is fantastic. That is definitely custom and cost alot to do.:DQuote:

I started my PM45 and got it pretty shiny but not that level. Went with fine sandpaper through finer and finer grits then the wheel. As I said not that level or even close but pretty nice.
I don't have a large buffer wheel either, 6" I think. Bigger would probably help too.
Yea. The barrel polished up super easy.

It has a nickel finish but the slide is pretty hard.
I tried polishing up the inside where I makes contact with the barrel and it still isn't that good.
Every time I see that polished 9 I want to do my 45. But it shows scratches like crazy. The first time I used mine after I polished the barrel, it was scratched to hell from the slide.
With my luck I would scratch it all up. Better for me if I want to get fancy is stick with the PM9. CM 9 is not California approved.:confused::eek:Quote:

They're isn't much difference in size between that PM9 and PM45, huh?
Actually the 45 is considerably larger. I had my 45 awhile and a couple officers got PM9's. I was surprised how much smaller.
We're not talking inches of course but there is a difference.
My dad has a pm45 and we compared it to my CW45. I was really surprised. I thought it was gonna be a lot smaller, like my buddies CM9 is.
I think I'll get the Sub 9.

From when I still had my CM9:

Greg, do you use a $4million camera or is it the glorious Arizona sunshine that makes your pictures come out so great? Please don't tell me it's talent...:o
Thanks.
Thanks! Definitely not talent, more likely it's the sunshine, a lot of shots, and luck:photo:Quote:
