All the above! If you have never looked at or held a origional blued Colt, you wouldn't really understand what an art blueing is, that dark, rich, deep blue that takes your breath away, plus, it's a Colt! I'm finding these days I much prefer a mix of finishes on my pistols, the first Colt 1911 2 tone started me down that dark path, and it came full circle with my Ruger Old Army, Blued and polished brass! My latest Kimber, a two tone stainless and Ceracoat in charcoal with black accents is quite stunning. And my brother has a burnt bronze and grey AR that really catches the eye! I used to be a hard core Blue guy, but I also see Stainless ( and alloys or exotics like titanium) to not only be quite useful and desirable, but also beautiful in their own right!
Shush, just be quiet, it's already hard enough to find Colts without you telling folks how good they are
