Looks amazing by the way.
Thanks! I love the effect of it. I painted it. It's Duracoat, with pigment from Gun Candy. I did a super matte finish, so it actually looks anodized in person. Definitely not a spray can, though. It's about $100 worth of paint to do it, but it's pretty easy to do it right, and it obviously looks the business.

I just poured some Goo Gone into the trough and waited a few minutes. The letters pulled up pretty quickly, and I could scrape away the residue after that.

i had the opportunity to test a LP500 (blue angel) versus my P8X
both me and the owner of the LP500 agreed that the trigger on the P8X is much better (smoother). on the lp500 it sorta vibrates after firing.

i also tested an old Morini 162 mechanical. the trigger was better than the LP500 but worse than the P8X
