George1990 Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 What's it all about? I got a one recently with case hardening - though it looked quite nice. Looking at it more closely I've decided it is wearing off. The other side especially. Under the barells on the action it is still very strong. Does it matter that it's coming off? Will the metal deteriorate underneath if it wears off? How much to get it re-done? Thanks Can't get other pictures up at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fortune82 Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 It wears off naturally. Dont worry about it. Most guns have it polished off before being sold but some are left with it on. If you look at gun adverts they will say things such as "50% colour hardening remaining". It wont damage the metal at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordon R Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 It's still a good looking gun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
