The one I had was hard chromed from the factory and was like new.

The true danger is when liberty is nibbled away, for expedients, and by parts.

Edmund Burke 1777.

He mentioned he thought someone prior to him had been keeping it under the seat of their truck.

He thought it was a bright finish and I did find evidence that FM built deluxe models that were some form of nickel or chrome.

Cold blue will stain the barrel lug, disconnector rail and inside of the dust cover which would seem to indicate it is carbon steel with no finish.

Both ends of the flats of the slide are somewhat rounded, it looks deliberate but I am not sure if this is how it is supposed to be or if it is supposed to be similar to a 1911 and flat all the way to the end.

I am kind of thinking it might be a good candidate to bead blast and drop in a parkerizing tank, but the frame looks cast and someone mentioned that they had an FM frame go badly wrong in a parkerizing tank.

I might like to make it look a little better and stop the decline, it seems like it needs rescuing, but I dont want to destroy it.

All he did to it was keep it drenched in oil and all Ive done is field strip, clean, oil and drench in CLP again.

The FMs I have seen, and everything I have read, suggests that they were all painted (for lack of a better word).

I have one. It is black, and it is clearly and obviously a coating.

Whether its a black enamel paint or a more high tech, polymeric firearms coating product I dont know or care.

Mine is a range piece only, not subjected to holster wear, so whatever the finish is has been good enough for me.

I strongly suspect (knowing it has passed trough a number of hands at dealer automotive shops) that it has been dropped in good old fashioned carburettor cleaner and sanded.

That said the pictures make it look shinier than it actually is and the serial numbers on all three parts seem roughly the same depth which sort of makes me think it hasnt been ground on too hard but the O in sportarms as well as whatever was behind the cocking serrations is obviously light (it looks similar to what is on the barrel lug) I did a few google image searches for FM M90 and FM M95 and got some silver ones with black or gold hammer trigger and slide stop.

I was originally thinking the N stamped into the disconnector rail might mean Nickel.

Perhaps I will just paint it since yours looks good and that might hide more of the transgressions.

Seems like from what Ive found that SportArms may have disappeared in the 90s.
