Protecting case colors

[King Cobb]

Forgive me if this is already known, I had not seen it posted in previous discussions.

I recently acquired the below rifle from Dough and his crew over at Turnbull. It is a fabulous gun and the case coloring is fabulous, surpassed only by the checkering.

In speaking to a member of the staff there about protecting the CCH he commented that it should be pretty durable on there as they put a clear cerakote finish on top of the case colors.

I have limited experience with cerakoting, and what I have is definitely not clear, but I was actually impressed to hear this. I can't see the coating visually when looking at the rifle and that should give it some pretty serious protection.

Anyway, just thought I would share the info.
