Title: Steel Ejector Housing
Post by: Niederlander on December 03, 2019, 03:49:05 PM: Am I to assume Ruger no longer offers the steel ejector housing through any parts houses?

Post by: Coffinmaker on December 05, 2019, 07:58:20 PM: I admit to having the memory of a Gnat. Small, flighty Gnat. Ergo, I don't remember Ruger ever offering a Steel Ejector Housing. I do remember Steel (Blue and Stainless) being offered by the Cottage After-Market. I think. Sort of. Maybe. Brownells.

I don't know if it's steel or aluminum, but you can try this and ask the seller

Post by: Coffinmaker on December 23, 2019, 10:25:02 AM: Oh for Pete's Sake Biltmore!!! :o No, it won't darken much if at all but you may well warp it or even melt a spot or two. Is there something wrong with a shiny Ejector Housing?? Might be some neat contrast. I'd like it ;D

Post by: Baltimore Ed on December 23, 2019, 10:59:18 AM: Sorry to confuse, I was wondering about darkening the s/s housing. So you?re saying that I should swap cylinders and build a pinto Ruger? How about 2 pintos? A testament to Rugers QC they swapped and work perfectly.

Soooo.... the only safe and sane way to change the color of your stainless ejector housing would be one of the amazing new
paint products like the bake-on gun coatings.

but instead, your pair of pintos is actually stylish and fashionable! I like them! especially the little shortbarrel birdhead...

yessir, "pinto-ing" is the term. Or two-tone.
In fact, the style was established with the Colt Walker, blued barrel, case frame, and "in the white" cylinder.

quite stylish!
