New to this site, my single post was about loads for a hammer gun I was "rehabilitating" tho "resurrecting" might be a better description, and comments began to move the thread in a restoration direction. Just now reading various posts, I ended here. If not already known by us fixer-upper types, by doing a combination of the heat method used to color metal brown, then wipe on blueing the still very warm barrels and letting it stand until the surface rust forms, you can create a great new look that doesn't shout refinish, raising the visual condition description one or two levels.
