detail cleaned S&W 27-2 PICS

since we dont have a gun photography section
but i am a member.
i decided to put this in the members club

i just spent about 2 1/2 hours detail cleaning this revolver.
i used caranuba wax as a protectant.
this cant get any cleaner.
i also used a dremel with the very small jewelery polishing brush as well as a soft toothbrush with murphys oil wood soap for the grips.
i even polished the grips medallion inserts.
camera
CANON POWERSHOT A530
