Suggest erase the blue on lock frame using Casey Rust & Blue Remover. Original gun's lock frame is not blued. Not silver bright either. It should be hardened grey color.

There are some other places.. but I will keep those secret
I don't know if I'm better than Eugene, but at least I'm quicker...

I know about the lock block, I just thought it would look better like this. This one will hopefully be used, and the bluing will hold up better than bare metal. I would like to protect the hammer too, might try a dull nickel on the next one.

Feel free to point out whatever you find, this will help me do better next time
