Yes, those are very nice.
I do like stainless. I like stainless more than I like chrome. As chrome is so thin and will come off with any polishing or buffing. Whereas stainless is solid all the way thru', tho' may have a buffed or polished surface.
I was having a recurring argument with a friend. He says stainless will not rust. I disagree. And I think I saw a post here or another forum about "rust on my stainless gun".
Stainless also can stain.

Very nice photograph of 2 very beautiful Colts. For me, nothing looks better than a Bright Stainless Python.

There are different grades of stainless but where guns are concerned the material will rust since it has a higher level of steel. If he droughts that then tell him to take his stainless gun and leave it out in the rain and talk to you after a week of not cleaning it. Yes it is more resistant to rust than any other material used in firearms but like I stated there is different grades for their use purposes. Oh nice guns by the way.😁

Nice pix.
Stainless is just too flashy for my purposes.
In fact, I have a stainless S&W 66 that would prefer in blue.
Hell, who's gonna argue? The price was right.
Not to hijack or stir up a hornet's nest, but has anyone ever seen a MnP04 Python?
There was a Parked one on GB a while back.
Looked ok to me.
ps. bead blasted stainless is one of the nicest 'feels' you can get in a hand gun.
jes' sayin'.

Impossible not to like stainless! Neat combo of Colt semi-auto and revolver. And spectacular photography, too. My compliments!

Wow. Those are gorgeous. but I'm still not into stainless. I prefer a finish that will wear off and not be eternally perfect. If I have to get tarnished with time, why should my guns get a free ride?! Actually, blue wear and flaked nicked look just great to me. But if I saw an Interarms Walther PPK/S .380 in stainless that I could afford....
