Antique Browning
Anyone ever watch the TV Show "American Guns" ?? I love it!
But anyway the point of the post.. They did an antique brown barrel on a double barrel shot gun, stripped it to bare metal and then put it into a box with coffee grounds, dampened it and then buried the barrel and covered it over, After a few days the barrel had a great looking brownish patina on it, very good looking.
After i browned my Renegade barrel I figured, what the heck, why not give this trick a try and see if I can add just a little more personality to it? I've had it in the coffee grounds for 3 days now and its leaving a real nice layer of rust on it that should buff down nicely with steel wool and really make it pop once its oiled.
I'll get some good pictures when the rifle is together, got a new 14mp camera and the thing takes amazing pictures, remember the sunset pic? That was taken with the new camera.
