Hello all. I recently picked up a 1920 colt 1911 that was apparently upgraded in world war two. It has a 1920 frame and serial number but world war two colt internals...dont ask lol i was asking the same questions. Anyway the finish on the gun along with all the colt markings are gone due to someone preparing the gun for custom scroll engraving. Has a plain satin color finish right now. How ever i feel as though i have a blank canvas and have some ideas on possibly getting it refinished. I am wanting feed back guys. Should i keep all the internals and have the externals refinished or should i buy all new parts and just keep the frame. Anyway some feedback would be great!
