Apologies for resurrecting an old thread but the 37 is now in bits ready for a bit of tlc and I'm hoping someone may be able to answer a question .
I have some red enamel paint which can be baked so plan to re-colour the lettering on the underside of the receiver once it's been blacked.
One site on the net said that the stamped/rolled lettering on the barrel was in red too, but I'm not sure if this is correct. There's a bunch of Brit proof marks and "not British made" stamps on the barrel and action which will be left as they are but I wondered if anyone could tell me if the rest of the writing should be coloured ?
There's also a broken hammer ear which needs a weld repair, does anyone have a pic of the hammer they could post here or send via email please ?
I'm not sure if this part changed shape over the years but this model has the pig tail top lever if that helps.
I can't post pics as my vintage mobile phone won't let me sign up to the better hosting sites.
Thanks,
Nick.
