Frame repair

For an incorrect finish, parkerizing would be better than any coating

I agree with both, neither finish I just love, but I will see what goes on it andon covers it, might be able to hide the fixed stock lug on the nicer one by slight sanding and bluing

The other, I have to decided, the Dutch, rust frame is already that weird gray color, so parkerizing might be okay, we'll see.

As it is, I bought an upper off of ebay and yesterday I made a 'shooter' just have to try it out

Ceracote is another possibility. It comes in many colors, and matte to glossy. It seems to function very well on handguns. Just a thought.
