Folks I grew up (like many of us) in the days when the only stainless gun on the market was the Smith Chief's Special. I also learned early in my life that I have what many call "rusty hands", wherein for whatever reason, my body chemistry seems to be especially corrosive on beautiful polished blued steel. Despite meticulous cleaning and care, my hands over the years have lightly marked the bluing on several of my guns. I have advised my son to keep this in mind, after he had the same experience with blued P89 Ruger magazines of his own. With this in mind, I now own only stainless or military-type finish guns.
I am reluctant to handle blued guns much, especially others pieces.
I own and shoot with pride two beautiful stainless ROAs, and would like to expand to other stainless BP creations. Not interested in modern inlines or synthetic stocks, could you folks help me identify other stainless BP choices? My Holy Grail would be a stainless Kentucky flintlock which I know would need a carbon steel frizzen. I need the extra edge of stainless nowadays to even enjoy shooting, lest I spend my time at the range focused mostly on my concerns. Thank everyone. Don
