My dear old dad had a Smith gathering dust in his nightstand, so I offered him a Taurus 85 and $100.

He swapped with me, but told me to spend the $100 on my wife since she's helping him get a computer fixed.

What a DEAL!

So, what does a man do on New Year's day? FLITZ it, of course!

After a quick FLITZ job:


Great way to start the new year, don'cha think?

Nice gun, nicer Dad and good work with the Flitz.

Chas.

great job!

I know some people who would be tickled with the "before" gun. But if you are happier with the "after" (and got to ditch a Taurus for a Smith!), that's a great way to start off '08!

What is a "flitz?"

COOL!!!!!!!!!!!

Nice job, especially how the Flitz makes wooden grips look like composite.

I suggest that now is a good time to give the wife the 100 and ask her to get you some more flitz. Nice pistol and nice work on the finish.

Ok, I totally never would have believed that was the same gun!

How long did it take to clean that gun up? (minus the grip job)

While I can appreciate the character of the old gun with the wooden grips, that thar new Smith sure is purty!
