So one could roughly date a DelGrego refinish by the case hardening, yes? Before 2005-6 the guns would be cyanide finished?

That seems reasonable Garry.

The DelGrego article is in the “4 Year Anniversary Special Issue” and I don’t know if that issue is available at book stores. Possibly only to subscribers. It came in today’s mail. There’s another excellent article in the issue covering “Classic American Hammer Guns” by Stephen Wesbrook to include Parker, Colt, Remington, LCS and Ithaca.

Put me down for “who knows?”

Frank, in this part of the country, (south of Gettysburg, north of the White House), we haven't seen a book store for years. They are all belly up except for gay and extreme liberal outlets.
