Its finally here....I won't say "done", as I may have some color case hardening done to it, but it is "here"! smile

That is gorgeous. I really like the "in the white" look of the receiver, it makes a nice contrast. Case hardening would be an option bu I honestly don't know if it would improve the looks.

I'd also like to know who did that. Looks like they might be beyond my budget but it doesn't hurt to know. wink

Thanks guys, it is pretty nice.

I've decided to leave the receiver in the white and have the lever, buttplate, grip cap, sling stud and rings color case hardened.

Then it will be complete.

Thanks for the comments!

ASS RA!

I'd not leave it in the white, but that's just me.
