Default Another Repro engraving makeover
I restocked this 20g. DHE for the owner maybe 5 years ago. This summer he gave it back to me to have the engraving embellished and bone charcoal case colored.
I did the polish and prep as well as intro bluing of the appropriate parts. Geoffroy reworked the engraving in his usual excellent fashion and Doug colored it. Our own Travis Sims nickel plated the triggers for me.

All of this really completed the package on this 20g.

I also attached a photo of what it looked like right after I restocked it with the factory frame finish.

Sure looks like conventional organic case hardening heat treatment.
