Indeed, gun has straight stock. I had him muller the borders and the gun looks for all the world like a new DHE from the past. At least to me. I like it well enough that I am sending him two more. I like these guns so much that I will forego the "new one" I could buy with the price of the refinishing.

Peter,

Beautiful gun! The stock finish and case colors look great. What work did Brad do on the gun besides the case colors and stock refinish (if anything)?

Also, is that an oil finish? It really brings out the grain, and the color is very nice as well. Big improvement over the "before" photos!

Marvin,
He also mullered the borders on the checkering and chased it. Nitre blued the trigger guard and buttplate. I have to send it back , however, because it is a 2 barrel job and the barrels have to be re-fit after case coloring. I neglected to send both sets in. I shoot this gun like it is part of me so I am very happy to have it so pretty. I will send him my other two repros for the same treatment. I am a confirmed repro lover and shooter. The finish appears to be an oil finish but does have some shine to it. The stain makes it look more Parker.
