Lyman Plains Pistol

Got this as a project. Refit some parts and smoothed up the wood and metal. Then rust blued and color case hardened as needed. My kind of fun.

Very nice. We'd like to hear about your technique!

 

[Oliver Sudden]

What technique is of interest?

 

[ligonierbill]

Case hardening.

 

[Oliver Sudden]

It’s wood and bone charcoal done in the traditional way.
