Doug,
A thread on case colour re-hardening is an appropriate place to comment on the fact that I don't generally like it. Where else?
The comment was not about you or your work. You seem to have taken it personally. It was about spotting re-colour hardening.
I made very clear in every post that I was expressing MY preferences and opinions. Surely that is why we are all here talking guns?
Look back and see if you can find a single instance where I have targeted you or justify personal jibes.
You have a vested interest in having people like your work Fine.
I do not have a vested interest in liking or not liking case colour re-hardening. I have at my disposal the best CCH people in the British Gun Trade and I use them when making new guns, which I actually prefer to be colour case hardened (I'm building two side-locks this year and persuaded the client to have them CCH finished when he did not want it).
I think I have made some fair points and illustrated them with examples. Others have expressed different opinions and examples.
As for 'rude' I suggest you look at who has been making snide comments and where they have been aimed.
