how did they make those trigger guards? are they one piece?

and could that gold wash on the receiver be original?


This might be the silliest looking double I have ever seen. There is so much questionable about this gun it's difficult to know where to begin. On balance, it looks like some backwoods New England bumpkins tried to create a "Kardashian" grade gun.

WHY is there black (paint?) dripping from the breech end? Did someone literally Krylon over the barrels with matte black paint?

So many other questions...not least of which is what gaudy concoction they used to...*ahem* -- "gold wash" -- the frame. Goes great with the boat oar quality wood and 1970's off brand pad.

Great for a morning laugh over coffee, though. Thanks for sharing. *S*
