I had a gun at their shop for a second set of barrels to be fitted, when Brad died. It took me over a year to get it back after dozens (No exaggeration) of broken promises, and outright lies. Mother and son couldn't even agree on the BS. It came back with a nice reblued finish and daylight showing through the breech face. I'd use Rustoleum before I use them again.
The fake colors of a Reproduction are not 'Case' colors, or the result of any heat treat process. It is a dye applied to (barely) simulate case colors.
