I'm sure Melensdad will be able to answer this. I started collecting Detonics pistols. I fell in love with them when I got a chance to buy a ScoreMaster 45 acp. It is my favorite and most accurate gun I own. I have several 1911's from Colt's, Sigs, Paras, Performance Center 1911, Etc.
I was able to buy an early CombatMaster, Serial number 22xx. Is this one of the first 250 made? It is in great shape, I would rate it 98% with no real marks to speak of. I include some pictures. You can actually see where the gun was cut and put back together. Quite amazing how they made them back then.
Second gun is a Pocket 9. Not much of a collector, but this one caught my eye. It doesn't have any writing on the slide and it has a polished finish. It doesn't look like the finish I have seen on other Pocket 9s. The entire gun has a polished finish including the trigger. I have seen other examples of guns that where special runs for executives without the markings on the slides. Could this be one of those or just that someone polished off the markings?
P.S. This is my first post ever on any forum, sorry if I screwed it up.
