The burnt bronze on the slide didn't work out as well as i would have liked the guy said he would do a color change for me in an afternoon, no charge,
As you can see the frame is stainless but the slide was carbon so i had to do a color. we did the controls in black left the stainless alone but the burnt bronze just isn't doing it for me.
But the trigger sweet mother mary it is great! I think i will go with one of the grey colors or OD green or tan. I think the bronze is ugly as 40 acres of burnt stumps.

I was going pimp with polishing the stainless pearl handles but that damn carbon slide keeps messing everything up. I am a PIMP

I would just do the slide black...

I don't think the green and stainless combo would look good / and the tan would almost look to much like the bronze.

But its your weapon do what you like.

Your gun, your decision; but if it were me I'd try to match the frame color to the slide. I'm not a fan of duo color guns

Don't feel bad -- it's only slightly uglier than a Glock.

I would also keep it simple. Black or silver would look the best with the stainless frame and black handle.

I would go with a gunmetal grey type color. I think it would look really good with the silver frame.

Are those grips black? I agree with bapple and would do a gunmetal/dark grey color on the slide. That's a shame it turned out like that, because that color looks great on guns.

Here's one I did in grey, I'm not a big fan of it either. Probably going to change it to all black when I get some free time. It was originally all stainless.
