ted: re: shotgun receiver recoloring...have come to the conclusion that it is not a good idea, regardless of method utilized...and certainly original factory heat treatment of receiver metal should never be altered in a vane attempt to replicate case colors...
and to repeat, old wood should be babied...just because a gun was suitable for heavy loads, when it was new, does not necessarily mean the wood is still strong enough to handle the recoil generated by modern heavy loads...
