Here's one with a little character...

I buy used most of the time but usually don't buy this "rough".

Just soft for Colt Commanders. This one shoots to point of aim, just had a carry trigger job done and am facing the dilemna...Leave as is, or refinish.

Gunsmith who did trigger job said, "Let it be, it's earned it's look. If you refinish it'll be too purty and you'll be scared to use it. Carry it and shoot it."

Finish wear appears to be from long term storage contact with leather holster. Blueing looks leached from tannic acids in leather. Gun has very little internal wear.
