H Hawg New member Jun 9, 2016 #21 The Uberti by the way is true color case hardening although not as deep as the hardening done by Colt Click to expand... Don't know about now but it used to be just an acid wash. If you can cut it with a file it's not case hardened.

D denster New member Jun 9, 2016 #22 Don't know how far back you are referring to Hawg, but over the years I've Rugarized a significant number of cartridge and percussion Uberti revolvers and had to use a carbide drill to get through the case every time.
