Well, I guess if it's good enough for H&H and Purdeys it should be good enough for anyone,even the proponents of "low heat colors."I wonder what those folks would say about the ongoing discussion about color hardening we have here?

I will make a blanket opinion and leave it at that. I would never re-case color a gun. Once the colors are gone, there is no one in the world that can make it look as good as first applied. There is no replicating Colt, Winchester, Purdey, H & H or Boss colors once the horse has left the barn, even though there are many that do a good job (Turnbull). Let the gun show its age gracefully I say
