I don't have one, but I know who does the finish work on the frame.  The finish is custom color of Cerakote that is applied by Bunker Arms, a shop in Ellenton, FL, that now does most, if not all, of the Cerakote work for CGW.  The finish is very smooth and durable.  The internals are all done by CGW and Bunker Arms only does the Cerakote work.

Actually all our cerakote.  Bunker's work is perfection, which is great synergy  ;)

Thought that was "likely" the case, but didn't want to misspeak. :)  He does a pretty good bluing job too doesn't he?  I'm going to have him blue my 97B-E slide soon.
