Case color restoration?
Once Parker/Fox/Smith/LeFever ceased production and before Turnbull and Gaddy, were there places where one could have the case coloring redone? Wondering when restoring old guns correctly started to become a thing.

Pachmayr was one. Bobby

Frank Lefever and Sons. Not sure of their methods.

DelGrego
|
Delgrego did not do their own colors. They used Remington. To my knowledge.
|
I was lead to believe Delgrego used a commercial heat treat shop.
|
That may be the case, but i am sure they were not doing it in house.
|
Keep in mind I’m asking about the initial period after Fox, Parker, LCS, and LeFever shut their doors and before restoring American doubles became a thing.
|
And both Delgrego and Lefever had their roots direct from those operations.
Larry Sr. Worked at Remington on Parkers and Frank Lefever worked for Lefever, Hunter Arms and Remington. |
