Case color

[Bill Murphy]

Mr. Turnbull's shop did the receiver and related parts on a VH 12 gauge for me. It was an expensive project, but in the end, I was quite satisfied with the result. The paperwork will always stay with the gun, answering all questions for future owners.

Those colors look remarkably like the colors on the protected metal on two turn of the century guns I have. Im in agreement with those calling it a good job

I believe this is a fairly good example of redone case colors matching what they looked like originally.

Photography of metal finishes seems to be a large variable. What appears in pictures often misrepresents the real deal. No offense to anyone's photography skills, but the look of metal changes drastically with subtle light changes.

Chuck,
What are the optimal light conditions for photographing Parkers? The lights over my kitchen island and the flash from my camera phone are really distorting the look. Would an outdoor natural light shot reveal the real true colors?
