I recently asked Brad Bachelder if he could make my Little 5 pound 6 ounce 20 bore Sterley look as she did on her birthday 100 years ago.. She was getting a little rough, and when I called Philadelphia to order another the operator told me the number was "no longer in service" ... What a beautiful touch Brad....

Beautiful, John. I sold a really nice SW 20 to my best friend earlier this spring to give to his son as a graduation present. I had 2 of them, so I still have one in the safe. Yours is really light weight! What length are the barrels?

Bone and charcoal...... you will not get that type of color with cyanide.

Actually the colors on this gun are very close to the colors on my high condition 1920s vintage Sterlingworths which are cyanide case hardened.
