New Compact-Can't Shoot it.......
« on: January 08, 2016, 01:57:35 PM »

Picked this up at LGS on 12/26. After our annoying 3 day waiting period, took her home 12/29. Had time to clean and lube right before rotator cuff surgery on 12/31.. Needless to say,I can just fondle it til my shoulder heals :(. Yes I could shoot it weak hand only but that would not be pretty. Also ordered a few CGW items to install later. Will get different sights later also.

Did it come with the lettering in white or is that something you did and if you did it how and what did you use? I think it really sets the gun off. I hope you get healed up soon and back to the range.

It's actually a silver paint pen. Filled in the letters,let it dry,then rubbed gently with a a cleaning patch wetted with BreakFree.

Thanks for the quick reply. I think I'll start out on one of my cheaper guns before I try it on my 85 Compact.

Thanks anyway.  Your work really does look great.  I'd like to do the same with my P-01.  Did you use an automotive paint pen?

My bad-It was a Metallic Silver Sharpie not a paint pen.
