I had placed this little gun in the beaters as it was fairly beaten up over the years. As seen in first picture it does not have much nickel finish left. I found a Cerakote company (North East Georgia Cerakote, and no affiliation) and took the little gun to him. Well after getting all the desired details settled I left the old girl in good hands. There is still some pitting bust rust has been stopped and she was Cerakoted in a brushed stainless (similar to S&W semis) and I think she looks really good. She shot good before but hopefully the new finish will improve my aim. I am going to pick her up Tuesday and this is picture I got showing me the finish. I added the grips from Engineered Accessories. Originally she had Mother of Pearl grips that were cracked and friend had sold them. I got the little gun without grips at a very good price and the new grips look good.

I bought a Colt 1908 Hammerless .25 Vest Pocket .25 ACP built in 1909. I cleaned it and took it to the range. I put all six rounds in the target at ten yards with two rounds in the black. I thought it was great with the groove for sights. My wife put four of the six rounds in the black. She announced it was her gun now.
