Ah, you mean one that looks like this:



I want a 226 in this style. Have wanted one ever since I saw "2 Fast 2 Furious" (crappy movie, pretty gun).

Yep. I guess I should have said match my P220. The trigger would have to black though too. http://forum.imfdb.org/showthread.php?t=1131

Have you thought about just refinishing your current P226? But two guns are better than one, even if they are the same gun.

Yeah 2 Fast 2 Furious was crappy I preferred the 3rd one over it.

I wouldn't leave the trigger black. I would get the controls nickeled, too (on both guns).

I thought about re-finishing my P226, but doubt I will. There's a part of me that likes plain black. And even if I did get my 226 re-finished, I'm actually not sure whether I'd want it to look like the factory tutone (nickel slide, black frame) or the reverse tutone from "2 Fast 2 Furious". Decisions, decisions...
