Trigger guards are going to the bluer this week for polish and bluing. I'll be asking for $$$ very soon so be ready.
Terry More than ready!

Well, the last I heard is they are going to the bluer this week. This guy will be polishing and bluing them. I'm not for sure they went and I don't have a time frame for the bluer but I bet he won't sit on them long.

Guys..
The polishing is perhaps the most important thing of all...
It makes or breaks the final product.
Don't rush it...let the bluer/polisher do the job right.
A year from now, you'll forget ALL ABOUT an extra week or two of waiting, but that polishing job will be FOREVER. It's either done right, or not..
I say, give the guy time to do the job right....

Just an update. The parts are at the bluer now for polishing and bluing. A high luster (Weatherby )blue is the spec'ed finish. Something I didn't realize is the bluer was a little backed up at the moment and said it would be about a week and a half to two weeks before he could do them. Delay's are common with custom gun work. Oh the joy Anyway, here are a few more teaser pics to get by on. The guards are complete with the exception of polishing and bluing. Something he asked me about a few months ago was custom bottom for the steel magazines. Do you guy's think there would be any interest in that? Terry

OH....are you talking about a bottom to the mag that is now plastic? Yes, it would only work with the steel magazines though. Terry

I'll see what he say's. He's got a really cool pantagragh (SP?) too. We could have something nice scribed on the bottom I think.

If they can be made for a reasonable cost, I am sure there would be interest. I would love one......or two or three........

From another thread at the Campfire today: Barbara Streisand Out of respect for the genteel posters (with the fine taste in bottom metal) on this thread, I won't repost the picture of her without her top on, but if you want to see it, look for my post on the "Bad news about Tom264" thread. Don't say you were not warned though... John

This will probably be the last update. The the guy doing the polish and bluing on these said it was almost finished and asked for payment at the 1st of this week. I sent his payment and the last payment to the builder so they are paid for in full and my bank account is empty.
I'm assuming they will be here some time next week.

Terry Hi Terry Can I pay you by PayPal? (yeah, I know...! Don't anybody start up the "anti-gun PayPal chant" -- give me a better alternative and I will use it!). Money orders and international bank or wire transfers all cost about $US 30 or 35 each here... John (jpb)
