You know it's hard to identify the difference between the matte stainless steel and Colt's proprierty matte nickle finish. It was a special nickle finish that was developed by Colt and it wore like iron. I used to own a Colt Trooper Mk III with that nickle finish. I had the revolver for twenty years and the finish never did show any real wear. Stuff was amazing and from a distance you would think it was stainless steel. But I went with stainless steel just because. I figure the story takes place in the south (humid and hot) and it makes sense that a cop would want a stainless steel revolver due to the heat, moisture, time spent in a holster and exposure to things like body fluids.
