Maybe 2nd mortgage, need this in safe lol.

I?m wondering what the cost would be to do it yourself.  Turnbull?s prices are reasonable IMO.  One of the guys that used to work for him is on his own so that?s an option for the CCH.  I guess I should say he was in business a few years back when I had a Savage 99 lever color case hardened. 

As much as I like the finish it fades over time.  Which is accelerated w/ exposure to direct sunlight.  It looks great but fading over time is a big minus.  Especially when it?s the entire frame.

Neat, it looks like the did some reshaping on the slide stop and safety lever as well. Might just be the picture.

That is cool!  Sort of a blend of old technology found on guns that you would have bought 150 years ago and modern technology.  But the price.....OUCH!

Yep CCH finishing is extremely nice when done properly but it is a very weak finish even compared to traditional bluing. Very pretty when new though.
