Are you planning on shooting it or just looking at it? If you are actually going to use the gun as intended that should be the least of your worries. The CZ Rami is a carry gun. Its a tool. Tools show wear from use. It is not a collector piece that requires babying.
To you it’s a collector piece, and that’s your opinion ...but it’s just a nice used CZ carry gun, worth the same with that scratch as when you pay someone $300 to refinish it.To me it's most definitely a collectors piece that requires babying, while also a shooter.
I get what you're saying but I would prefer to keep this thing in decent cosmetic condition.

Are you sure it's not actually something on the finish and not finish scratched off?
No. Make up your mind.To me it's most definitely a collectors piece that requires babying, while also a shooter.

There's two ways from here:
1) Return it to the factory, pay for a complete refinish, store it under glass, and never touch it again.
2) Buy a barrel of ammo and go shoot it.
It's not a Nettleton Colt SAA, it's a CZ. Shoot it.
If it's collectible enough that that scratch matters, taking it to the range ruined it forever. Sell it, buy another.The problem is that any sort of refinish you make it not collectible. . .
You cannot return it to the factory for refinishing. CZ does not refinish guns in the US.
Anyone know a decent paint to fix this? I don't need something extremely durable. Just something that will blend in okay enough until I can get it handled by a professional.
Hell just go with something subtle. That scratch reminds me of the first ding on a car. After that major worry seems much less.
