I'm about to get started on a lyman kit. .54 percussion.
I bought the solution to brown the barrel, and am going to rig up a peice of PVC pipe with a light in it to get the heat and humidity right (figuring on putting a wet rag in and sealing it up fairly well, not air tight though).
Should I brown the other stuff like the barrel wedges and the eyes for them? Trigger gaurd etc.?
I also have a pretty good heat shrink torch, so I could try to heat color the smaller peices to match the lock.
Or do I just rub a satin finish on them an call it good?
I guess I should have paid more attention when I was checking out a finished lyman. When your surrounded by that much cool stuff, most of your concentration is used up trying not to drool or run around like a little kid
