[QUOTE="Glock 'em down, post: 4039253, member: 684"] Sorry Rick ol buddy, but I say leave it as is too. Maybe give it a good cleaning but that's it. Nice patina and a helluva good looking rainbow on that case hardened frame. :thumb: I know it angers you that he didn't take care of his thumb buster as you would, but just remember him as he was not as you wish he was. I did the same thing to my father Smith and Wesson K frame Military & Police pre model 10. It has the absolute ugliest grips on it. So I found some factory S&W magnas and slapped em on there, but suddenly, it became my gun and not dad's gun. So I put the uglies back on it and loved it for what it is. Do what ya gotta do. The memories will remain, but they just won't be the conversation piece that they are presently. Good luck with your decision. [/QUOTE]
