Received in the fullness of time and the vagaries of the postal service. These parts were severely rusted and well pitted. It could not be taken down to completely clear metal or the border engraving and words would be gone. The frame and floor plate were re-color case hardened using the bone/charcoal technique. Due to the depth of pits, after the parts were quenched and cooled they were coated with a lacquer, which I will take down with FFFF steel wool (sent with them) until I achieve the desired lustre relative to the rest of the gun. As for its "second chance" this old VH had a day at the spa.
