Bonesaw just posted this picture of his new Walker kit gun
on thefiringline ($265 from Dixie Gun Works). It could
probably be given a similar high polished steel finish too!
What I don't like are the clear varnished grips on my Uberties. They are slippery, too. I'm thinking about purchasing a semifinished grips and than give them some oiled finish or fake ivory grips. Hmmmm, will see ... Oh yes ... and I will put silver plating on that ugly brass triger guards, too
Just sand the finish off of the grips. Then you can give them whatever finish you like. I just rub the oil or grease I am using into mine every time I clean or load it.
Icy, silver plating tarnishes quickly around black powder. Cleaning off the tarnish soon removes the silver plates. I learned that lesson the hard way!
