Also as mentioned elsewhere, no few match guns were de-matched and issued, so frame stippling not unknown, and I'd like the still crisp original marking to stay crisp, and blasting does show on rounded mark edges and down in marks...really moot on a rebuild, even an arsenal rebuild, just a personal desire making sure marks last as long as possible, I guess...</p></blockquote><p></p>
