Just finished duracoating this P-83 for someone. He likes the PA63 color scheme so that's what we went with. Turned out pretty good but was a bear to get back together after a complete tear down.

Great Job. I really like the two tone look myself. Did a CZ82 and have had more offers on that pistol than I can count. Should sell it and get another or just do my P83

That's slick. Turned out really nice. I, too, like the duo-tone look.

Peace favor your sword,

Very Nice face lift. I'm tempted to do my p83. Did you do the grips? They look very clean.

Yes, lightly blasted the grips with a little aluminum oxide and duracoated them as well. Thanks for all the compliments! I was very happy with how it turned out, it was just a challenge getting all back together. Not many parts but as it was the first I had ever done, it did take a little trial and error. :D
