Giggles at the range

dbluefish · Jun 25, 2020

Now before the haters, hate, and before the scratching of heads commences, this is my relative tack driver, 16 rd P 85 MkII, and I just hated boring. Have had it since early '90's, never an FTF, FTE, and always hit what I aim at within a few inches. It is my favorite brick but boring so had a cerakote artist do a little Mark Chagall to this and as the title says, I get looks and giggles at the range. The single action trigger feels like 2 - 3 lbs!

Is that a Ruger ? That paint job is sort of like Dazzle Camouflage, makes it hard to tell exactly what it is.

OTOH, my Ruger P90, same experience, never a failure, very nice combat sights, surprisingly accurate.

and just to get it out of the way, here is the other side of the P85 along with the two 15rd mags. The stars glow the dark which I guess would be helpful if I dropped it at night, lol.

At least they’ll see you coming

Uh....

Whatever floats your boat.

That takes talent.

swoter · Jun 25, 2020

I like it!

I like Marc Chagall's work, don't recall him doing any pistols. lol

Not me, but it's not my gun.

Enjoy!

That’s... pimptastic!

That is definitely an attention getter. Not my taste but I can see where it could get a conversation started.

That is fantastic. Nice to see someone with an eclectic sense of taste.
Now I kinda want my P89 back......

I love the idea of MPMW---My Pistol My Way---Hmmm-I have an idea for a cerakote job on a Python.

It is definitely better than the bling the cartels buy their guns with.

whughett · Jun 25, 2020

I like it, unique one of a kind. Trigger screw on the figure, accident or design.

grampster · Jun 25, 2020

Nice work!

Heir Kommt Die Sonne · Jun 25, 2020

A firearm in itself a work of art. Artistic expression of the owner bears no consequence, so I see why not, paint it however you want.

My favorite look is blued steel, a heavily craftsman style but maybe that says something about myself

Hooda Thunkit · Jun 25, 2020

I find it whimsical. Your property, do with it as you wish.

I don't see it interfering in any way with the designed operation of the implement.

More power to ya, amigo !

I'm not sure that even a really good shrink can help you.......

Your gun, your choice. Just not my style...

Mn Fats · Jun 25, 2020

It looks like a Chinese squirt gun or cap gun. But... I would definitely shoot it! Hard to beat a nice single action.

It’s definitely different.

Police - “Mr. Smith, I believe we have found your gun.”

Mr. Smith - “Are you sure?”

Police - “Oh Yeah...”

jkhammer · Jun 26, 2020

I have to say, that was a lot of work to paint the pistol.
