https://www.gunbroker.com/item/994476884

are the colors bone and charcoal or cyanide or chemical compound or torch or?

Ha ha ha he got you guys!!! Another shameless bait and switch!! You guys are suckers!!!

i spoke for this gun this morning....will be interesting to have it in hand. seller says it is quite pretty, and in fine condition. he is a lefty, and it has something approaching 1/2" of cast-off - said he was considering sending it to mike orlen, with a request to try for 1/4" cast-on....i told him that would be a pretty tall order for a small wristed stock. ended up agreeing on $950 for the gun.

best regards,

tom

The images are gone from those threads, so here's the real thing for Forum members genuinely interested.

Note the "ghosting" around the pins.





Marlin era Smith with original cyanide colors



Original, but faded, Parker colors



C.J. Opacak bone charcoal re-color







A twofer - cyanide AND torch



This is nice



Please spare us the victim routine ed. You accomplished your goal.

Sorry Drew but the picture of the second Parker is an early one of mine not Dr Gaddy’s….his were much nicer 😉

All best
