Seeing as how the BSA Monarch project will have to be blacked (Blued) as the barrel is in the white and the action shows wear tot he original factory finish after some 40+ years of use the thought occurred as to how much like traditional BSA/Parker-Hale blacking would Duracoat look?
Those who know will understand what I mean as Both BSA and Parker-hale used a very deep gloss black although the earlier BSA's had a more traditional looking blacking/bluing. Hmmm looking att eh action on my desk as I type this perhaps we could get away with just doing the barrel and re-doing the bolt handle.
But never really taking much notice of these coatings I don't know how they can look Matt is obvious the fad right now for lots but do they come in more traditional gloss?
