Default Reproduction Restoration

Just completed this Parker Reproduction restoration. The gun had been left in its hard case. The engraving had to chased in numerous spots. The left side of the receiver was in terrible shape and had to be recut using pictures because we couldn't get a good ink pull with all the pitting.

We used our laser engraver to cut the fine repro style markings on the left side of the barrel. Skeleton plate, trigger guard and barrels were blued in house. The owner wanted repro style colors so the receiver was molten salt colored by the famous Doug at Bowler Hat Classics. Hope you enjoy some before and after pictures.


















Engraving touched up, ready for coloring
