Thumbs up It's back !

The 1900 AE arrived (from Thor) today, and below are some photos showing the 'after' state of the pistol.
Bright morning sun, no Photoshop or artificial lighting or filters.
There's one shot of the other side of the pistol as a color-comparison.
The minor color-difference between the receiver and the frame is simply a highlight from the sun...in reality the colors match perfectly.
I've been in this hobby for about 50 years, and have dealt with most of the big-name restoration guys.
NEVER have I seen this type of job done, and NEVER have I seen such perfect work.
You've all seen the 'before' shots, so I won't repeat them.
The small areas that Neil welded and filled, and Thor refinished are so perfectly blended into the surrounding original finish that they're undetectable.
I've can not get over the transformation to this fine old pistol.
Don
