Here are a few pictures of my Bell 1911. (I actually think the shop mis-labelled because I've never seen a Bell like it before so I think it's an Army) Anyway, I sanded it down until all the black paint was off (This required pretty much completly taking it apart) After removing the paint I sanded it with finer grain sandpaper until the scratches were barely noticable. I then did all the magazines. Then I gave the gun three going-overs with polish soaked wadding to give it a chrome like finish. I gave the magazines to coats. I think it turned out well and now the gun looks very custom. I personally like the black hndles on the silver body and that the top of the slide is black. I also think that leaving the grill-like things at the side of the slide black (The black lines) looks really cool.

Tell me what you think and I'd be glad to awnser any questions on how to do this sort of thing.

Oh yeah I got oakleys in the mail. they're gret but not practical if your using a pistol.

Here is my kitty roasting area..muawhahaha. Don't worry I shoot them first they feel no pain...

See the crescent-like shape on the back of the slide? It represents time, how little time the person on the other end of this hs to live..

Another kitten of corse.

Never seen one with those markings before, but pretty cool.

Nice job, Springfield Armory actually produced a real steel model with those color combinations.

It either represents time left to live, or is a molded in extractor claw that couldn't get fully polished down due to its uneven recessed molding. "Hi, My name is Debbie Downer."

very good but no. I had two sanders, a normal belt sander and a precision one. I could have easily gotten rid of every little bit of black with the precision one. so I left it as a symbol.

Oh and the thing under the rear sight is Duct-tape because the sight wobbled a lot which didn't help when in stealth mode.

Nice pistola. I think that if I do manage to get another airsoft gun. I'm going to get a 1911.
