BBQ Kimber
This one followed me home today. I usually don't go for such guns, but the price was just at what I considered was "can't lose" and the trigger is phenomenal. It is a Kimber Pro CDP II that someone polished the stainless slide and stripped off the Kimber "paint" off the aluminum frame. They didn't do a perfect polish job, but it is a darn good one. This thing is shiny as a new nickel. Truth be told, if I keep it, I'll probably scotch-brite it down to a matte finish again, as the high polish produces a lot of glare in outdoor shooting light. However, it sure is a spiffy looking gun. I reckon I could get away with it at a BBQ.

Doh - forgot to use img code
I've never been able to convince myself...
that shiny handguns or pretty redheads are ever a bad choice. The fact that I quit trying decades ago just might have something to do with it, though ;)
Nice Kimber!
Dang, someone needs to refinish the front porch!

Nope. That is my "prop" wood
Came off an old barn locally. Fell off the dump truck hauling the demolition debris away. I pulled it out of the road and decided to keep it to use as a background for pictures. Cut the planks up into usable pieces and it has been my stand-by background ever since. :)
I know that, just funnin. My background wood is from
the old outhouse that was the first building built on this farm we live on...

No MSG
Scotchbrite
Ordinary GREEN would almost certainly be too coarse, so I would probably start with GRAY. If the supermarket doesn't have them, you can usually get the different colors at the hardware store.
Stangely enough − or maybe not so strange − it also works better with OIL. (A LOT better.) Ordinary 'gun oil' is fine.
HTH
PS: Nice gun.

BINGO!
I like both, as well.
my deck isn't much better than that
I use it for a quick and dirty background, usually it really is pretty dirty.

Got that very same knife down in the safe.
Jimmy sure made some nice knives.
Never really wanted anything to do with a redhead.
Guess I saw Maureen O'Hara in Rio Grande, The Quiet Man, McClintock!, Big Jake, and Wings of Eagles too many times.
