Not anytime soon. If I was going to use this thing I'd tank it.
May still get it tanked in the future but for now it just needs to look good hanging above the wood stove.

All done...and it even goes boom.

Looks pretty good from this angle.
Thanks, guess I could have gotten a better pic. The oxpho-blue did well, using a torch to preheat was key.
It's no Davide Pedersoli but it will serve it's purpose.
There's a guy that is usually set up at Oaks that sells bluing and refinishing supplies. Claims he stuff he sells is the only stuff approved by the NRA and Smithsonian museums. It does seem to work well.
Turned out nice brother!
Hello, I just recently used a product called BLUE WONDER, it is fantastic. It comes in a kit that includes the blue, a cleaner, a developer and oil. If you use it, use what they provide, do NOT use any other cleaner, use what is provided. The finish is impeccable, it looks as good if not better than any factory finish that I have seen. Actually it compares to a Browning or Weatherby. It is exceptionally nice. It requires you to heat the parts, from my experience, the hotter, the better, not cherry red but hot to the touch. I would use this product again, hands down. You can do an entire gun with this kit, maybe even two or at least a pistol or revolver.
