The barrels are in the white but the engraved portions (barrel wedges, words etc.) are burnt or rusted looking? How are they engraving them such that they look like that before bluing? Are they using the same method on the rest of the gun?

The "engraving" was one of the reasons I cancelled my order. I'd sooner have a RBL in the white than that stuff. I'd still be waiting on my 9/28/05 deposit order.

To say it is engraving is misleading and an insult to true engravers who spent many hundreds of hours creating a masterpiece. AND before anybody says it I KNOW I KNOW I KNOW you wouldn't get it at this price point........ and yes there are several guns in my collection which unfortunately do have etched, stamped, rolled, pressed "fake" engraving.
