Earlier this year I re-painted my Rick Ross SNUB. Thought I'd share.

Thanks, it's Rub n' Buff silver over a satin black. The shell ejection port, triggers, and metal portion of the handle are aluminum over gray primer.

That is a great finish on that snub. Is that just the sliver of the grip frame coming through the grips or did you give the grips some kind of treatment, they look great.

Hot damn, but that's a terrific piece of work!
I forgot how gorgeous Rick's PKD Snub's are and your paint job makes it even more beautiful.
Great effort and a stirling result. Many thanks for sharing!

Absolutely love it! That really brought a whole different life to your snubby blaster.

| You definitely understand the rub-n-buff technique. Eye candy! |

Thanks! That's the silver coming through. I have Rick to thank for the crystal clear, flawless casting work on the grips.

what does Rick sell these things for? Been to his site and didnt find prices listed at all? Im interested in the standard model PKD but if the snub is a decent price that might make it to my wish list.

I'm not sure if Rick is making blasters at the moment.
Last time i spoke to him he had some personal things going on and i think he had to make new molds aswell. |

Yeah I set a new record on that one I think..
Sold to a guy in Japan. I guess they are hard to get over there. Man I hated to sell it... well I hope the new owner really likes it. He said so anyway.
