Refinish a P220- burnt bronze or copper

Has anyone refinished a P220 in a burnt bronze or copper finish ..... maybe close to the emperor finish.

I did an AR in Burnt Bronze, I thought about doing a Jericho 941 in that color.

Not a P220 or burnt bronze but similar

I had CCR do my P229 in their tri-tanium with house black controls and CPII barrel.

Which ever you do decide, please post some pics as I’m sure I’m not the only one interested on how it will turn out!

Likewise, I had a 92FS done in Tritanium. The problem with taking pics is that Tritanium can appear different color tones, depending on the light. It has an earthy, almost metallic tone. I found it hard to get a good pic that looks like the actual gun.

You are so right Tritanium is very very hard to photograph. I think sometimes we should have called the color chameleon.

burnt bronze looks like crap when it starts to wear, imo.

I have a 10mm 220 in the Emperor finish. I wanted the gun for its features not the finish but that finish has grown on me. It looks real good on the P220.

I have a Wilson Combat EDC X9 in two tone Burnt Bronze and Black. I can take a pic of it and post it if you'd like. They have some fancy name for the finish, but I believe it's Cera- Kote

It's very hard to photograph CCR Tritanium. It looks awesome in person.

Here's a before/after shot

Not that my opinion matters, but I like it.

Sig P220 Stainless Elite Carry: due to rust spots, I fixed it and had it CeraKoted. I went semi-gloss black on slide and all parts, with Tungsten on frame.

I know many may not like it, but I also went E2 grips on it, as they just feel 'right' in my hands.
