"I do believe that to the general populace of experienced double gun men that the "spots" are unacceptable, if for no other reason than they do not reflect the original coloring of the action"........ah, the great oz has spoken! knows all, sees all...please, be aware: ed lander has been a general gunsmith for over 60 years now! recoloring a shotgun receiver without changing the original factory heat treatment aint easy. old ed has recolored well over 100 shotgun receivers at my request. most, but not all, turn out to be a fair reproduction of what i consider to be the original factory coloring. over the years, i have been very successful selling guns that old ed has worked on. if not, i certainly would not be using his services. the fact is, there are literally thousands of the general populace of experienced double gun men that appreciate old ed's wood and metal work. i am certainly one of them.
