I started with your typical hated Smith and Wesson Sigma series 9mm pistol shown in its "toy gun" grey finish
http://www.pirate4x4.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=220952&stc=1&d=1135538060
first I fixed the trigger pull problem associated with sigmas here (http://www.pirate4x4.com/forum/showthread.php?t=400180&highlight=sigma) and dyed the frame a different color
as shown here (http://www.pirate4x4.com/forum/showthread.php?t=426060)
http://www.pirate4x4.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=220953&stc=1&d=1135538060
and fabricated a picatinny rail out of an old AR rail.

Well I finished the bitch :evil:

I was going to Gun-kote or Dura-coat the slide but seeing as i went the cheap bastard rout from the beginning i might as well finish the "theme" :laughing:
Its sprayed with Rustoleum Textured in black and then baked in the oven at 350* for an hour. (same finish as my AK's) It is VERY tough and easily touched up.
That and its like $3 a can :p
I also went the cheap bastard rout with the light.

it is a LedWave Z-5. and cost me $50 shipped from ebay. Now before you laugh it has a momentary and ON switch that is ergonomic, it uses 2 lithium cells and believe it or not uses the EXACT SAME FAWKING BULB as my surefire :eek: You could put a higher watt Surefire bulb in this bitch if you wished.
I find it quite blinding as is.

You pull the trigger and the bullets come out the little hole in the other end.

i have not shot in since i painted it :laughing: :flipoff2: It JUST got put together 10 min ago.

but it is one of the most accurate 9mm pistols I have ever shot. with the trigger mods I did it shoots like a dream and i have had 0 problems.

I'm typically not a plastic gun fan, but I have to admit I like that one... overall your under $350-375 for that thing??? And it prolly handles better than most Glocks I've tried.... still I think I'll stick w/ my CZ75 though.

What did you dye it with??? Rit? That and the grip tape made a huge difference!

EDIT: And that is a nice ass :)

I'm guessing by the goosebumps, the spork was in Bev's presence?

Ahhhh Doc must have been handling the spork earlier and some of the residual power transfered over to the Sigma causing the goosebumps and later orgasmic convulsions.

well... I say it's a polished turd, but it's a nice polished turd. And if it shoots ok, even better..

off to ebay to look for a cheap light like that.
