Criminal of you don't shoot it. In my view the only thing that would improve the looks of that pistol would be if the front bluing was worn off from repeated draws from a holster as would be the bluing on the trigger guard and the beavertail and the muzzle only slightly blackened from the powder residue from the last range visit. :>)

Who sells the model in Canada or did you have to order it in?
