Hi guys,
So I sent of a d grade 16 ga action to a prominent engraver to have the quail on the floorplate changed into grouse. We decided to to the following additional things. Recut side engraving, and french gray the receiver. This was an adition $640 on top of the floor plate.
I received the gun back today and the floorplate looks great, but the action is far too bright. It almost looks modern. Also I can barely see the pointer on one side unless it is in the right light. When I sent the gun out it had some gaudy case coloring on it. I was expecting to get it back looking like the other d grade I have pictured here on the left. Anyone have any affordable ideas of how to achieve that color and make the dogs pop? Really bummed as this wasnt a gun I was hoping to have to put any more money in and wouldnt have ever paid $640 for what I got back.
Help with receiver DH
