Quite a few good older sxs out there and a few o/u on the used market that would be good candidates for getting painted black, and chopped at just over 18", if that's what you are into. Chop, solder, deburr, chamfer, cold blue touch up, and a nice ebony, or gray charcoal wood stain would be pretty sharp. Then I'd take it to a guy with a little more skill than myself to install front and rear sights.
