the wisdom of experience says not to alter the original factory heat treating in a vane attempt to restore case colors.
i have noticed that when this topic comes up, the most fanatical advocates of high heat bone charcoal case coloring usually are individuals that have a vested interest in the process. they often turn out to be some kind of over priced gun refinishing mechanic or engraver who needs a receiver re hardened and recolored, so they can continue to work on a gun and take lots of money from their customers.

Mr. Good quite frankly you and your hypothesis are dead wrong. Please go peddle your adulterated wares elsewhere.

Don Kass, who apparently had some experience of the Good/Lander connection, said that Lander had doubleguns shocked up like corn in a very small room. He had to do something with them! Seems to me that lately Mr. Good is searching for "legitimacy" by forsaking the "hot spots" method for something resembling Pipes' description of the oven heat and cold blue artistically deployed method which he derived from--IIRC--published recs. from Perazzi. Whatever Ed's doing to the scrubbed guns for sale on line, his attempt to project his own failings onto others in the trade isn't going to receive aid and comfort here.

There is one way to settle this once and for all. Take one gun and re-case color it repeatedly and see if any distortion or brittleness in the receiver results. Three or four times should settle this for everyone. I have several guns which are candidates and would be willing to submit one of them for testing. Any interest in finding out? I accept Dewey Vicknair's opinion and remarks and willing to back it up with a gun. Maybe we can end this rehash of "to color or not to color" once and for all.
