Yeah, I bet the guy who had it done was "stunned" the first time he saw it.

It's proof that Cold Blue and a Torch can be dangerous weapons in the wrong hands..I blew up the pics, it looks like whoever did it didn't even bother to remove the stock first. The finish looks crazed where the torch heated up the wood...

I prefer wood to plastic, leather to nylon, waxed cotton to Gore-Tex, and split bamboo to graphite.

I looked for ed's customary fig leaf in the pictures but didn't see it.
Practice safe eating. Always use a condiment.

The seller is a dealer. He should know better. This is fraud pure and simple. I wish a few of these guys would get prosecuted. Then perhaps the practice would be curtailed.

looks pretty nice to me...
no fraud here that i see...
this gun is a batavia leader, which is as i recall is a product of the crescent company, who bought the baker name when it was offered for sale? case colors look to good to be original, but they could be in fact original, not that it means that much with crescent made guns.

Ed,
I make it a point to avoid jumping on the "Ed-the-Torch-Wielding-Douchebag" bandwagon. You're making that very difficult. Why would you even want to post on this thread?

No, ED. Folsom bought Baker. Baker still made the guns, not Crescent, which was also owned by Folsom.
