The picture makes me feel ILL.

The gun is actually pretty nice - and then this ...words fail me,... perhaps "cretin" or "barbarian" would work, but I will settle for the Anglo-Saxon "churl", this churl torches the metal.

Are the sideplates annealed? Has the metal been damaged? Plus, if Landers has done that on the outside, what does the INSIDE of the "restoration " look like? Has the hinge pin been peened or pricked? I would be very wary of any gun which has been under Master Gunsmith Ed Landers hand until it was blessed by someone like Kirk Merrington.

Plus- it just doesnt look right. Better no colors than torch faked. I must second Brent. Almost worth buying so it can be sent to Turnbull.
