I have to much free time on my hands at the moment and I have been thinking about projects I can do from a chair .
So I have this uberti saa revolver , I've carried this thing around and shot the snot out of it for 20 odd years now .
16 or 17 years ago it went on a canoe trip with me , and got dunked in the Ohio river I wasn't able to get it dried off and oiled right away so it flash rusted . But only on the exterior oddly enough .
There was only a couple hours time between the dunking and cleaning so there wasn't any pitting .
But it took about 75 % of the finish off and mottled what was left .
Obviously what with the time passed since then it's appearance doesn't offend me any .
But hey I am bored as heck and I think it has earned a bit of a face lift.
My preference leans towards a dark blue almost matte finish , while I'm not looking for a show piece I want it to be an even, consistent and durable finish so I am thinking about a slow rust blue .
Any thoughts or suggestions ?
