"It has the look of silver"
Vern, It's called "French Gray". I believe it's done with an organic acid wash. Found on the receiver's of very high end engraved single shot rifles and shotguns. Almost a lost art of old world gun building, when done correctly. Tom, That is an absolutely beautiful piece of art. Congratulations, and good luck getting it's mate and case. They need to be reunited. Ron

Dang, i think i need a bucket under my jaw, that thing is positively gorgeous. Just look at the meticulous detail, lordy thats a beautiful pistol. Not so much a pistol, as an incredible piece of art. Well done sir, well done! This is a piece many of us just close our eyes and dream about, please, more pictures
What a way to ring in the New Year!

Very very nice looking pistol.... museum quality.
Once you've gotten calmed down, you really ought to have a professional photographer take some photos. I'll bet the detail is stunning! Nice way to start off the new year! Dave in TN. |

2nd4ever,
The *only* time I would even consider firing it would be to provide the coup de grace to a liberal politician. Tom A |
