LP-10 color question.

Has anyone used the LP-10 in the silver color. I'am interested in knowing if there is any problem with reflection off of the barrel?

Shouldnt cause a problem for two reasons:

1. in your on-target, aligned position, the rearsight fully hides any view of the barrel, hence there couldnt be a glare visible from a shiny surface on the barrel shroud.
2. the lp10 barrel shroud has tiny grooves running its full length, right from the breech to the fore sight. a surface such as this would not generate any reflection.

(I'm not an LP10 owner (yet), I'm basing this on my understanding of the laws of reflection which I did in college)

No I have not noticed any reflection from my silver LP10, I wondered the same thing when I changed from my FWB P30.

When you are holding the gun up and sighting you do not see any silver parts and it looks exactly the same as any blued gun.

Lane,
Are there any range's in the Sarasota area?
I'm in Englewood a few times a year and would like to find a decent range.
Thanks
Lou
