Brushed vs. Beadblasted HC
I was just curious what the differences between Bead Blasted Hard chrome and brushed hard chrome. Is the brushed just more brilliant than the bead blasted? Anyone who has pics would be greatly appreciated.

The flats on this Kimber are brushed and the radii are blasted...It's the way I like all my HC pistols.


When you take the time out of your day to beat someone, it has a much longer lasting effect on their demeanor than simply shooting or tazing them.

Yeah but that 100,000 was before the hard chrome. It looked like the shot below before HC and I was thinking of chunking it. When I got it back, I was like "Shaaazzaaaaammmm!!!!"Skiprr wrote:And he only has about 100,000 rounds down that one...
