Cerakote for a 1911 Officer
I am planning on Cerakoting my 1911 CS after I finish the break in along with some little mods. Now I am a huge fan of FDE on all of my firearms but I am trying to decide if I should go FDE on the frame and slide or just the frame and having the slide done in Armour Black. The controls will be black regardless of what I do with the frame and the slide.
What do you guys think?When in doubt, knifehand!

I voted FDE Frame and Armour Black Slide.
Then, black conrols and grips.
End result something like this:

I voted FDE frame and slide, then all the controls and grip in black. I did that to a RIA Tactical once and it looked very good.

I voted to FDE it all. I am a traditionalist about the M1911. It's a failing to be sure but not a bad one.
