I believe you are correct. That’s why I’m having them redone.

For my money, no one did them better than Batchelder. Has anyone had any case hardening experience from his shop since he passed?

I guess I was asking who did the re-recoloring. I didn't realize you had not had them re redone yet. Thanks.

A local friend of mine has a fellow in Kentucky that does some case coloring for him. He did the gun I had the mishap with and I've seen a few others he's done. IMG-7878.jpg
