Thanks for your reply. I fully understand your wanting to protect all of your work. I tried color case hardening one time at the research center about 30 years ago. The colors came out great, but I was never able to continue. They had some dumb rule about bringing any guns or parts on the premesis. Even when I helped Don Menk at Color case Company about 20 years ago he was somewhat secretive. I had not heard that Don is ill. He is a first class gentleman. One other question. I have seen some 98 Mauser actions color hardened at some of the gun shows. I was told by a gunsmith that they should in no way be color hardened due to the fact that one part of the action is kept at a different hardness than the other. Is that true?
