The trigger guard was niter blued so that it comes out a hard shiny blue black.

The Damascus browning is a dirty and lengthy process and hard to get right. They can come out murky and a person ends up doing it over until he gets it right or gives up.

The bone charcoal case coloring is harder still to get right. Many have tried, most fall short. However if a person can master Parker restoration correctly , collectors will beat a path to his door. The frame can be warped and ruined . No cyanide , no torch and oil , no bluing, no shoddy chemical wipe ons.

Good luck. Sincerely. We need more good gunsmiths. I hate to disagree with you Mr Day but what I think we need is LESS bad gunsmiths
