I purchased a pair of the .44 Pietta Navy Models, the shiny steel ones, from Cabellas and would love to do a full conversion on a pair like these one day. I read somwhere that Pietta claims that, though these are not stainless, they are a different rust resistant steel from their normal usage?? I do not think it would look good to have those contrasting parts but figure the blue Kirst parts could be buffed white and kept oiled and polishedto maintain a match?
OH, if these are to remain dedicated threads they need to be kept at the top, and I do like this 'dedicated' idea.
