Thanks. A Colt restoration whiz/friend of mine did it at a plater in Sioux City, IA. I noticed a few spots in the photo look rough but that is Ballistol and the lighting.

Howdy Fox Creek Kid--Mighty fine piece you have. Would like to see it and 'fondle' it. I have a '60 Army C&B, a Richards II, and a '72 Open Top, and a '73 style 'Peacemaker-- If ya want to sell it to me 'cheap', it would complete the cycle.  ;D Don't suppose that would be in the makin's? :(  Oh well, very nice gun ya have!!! Waitin to hear a report on how it shoots. Yers, Crow Choker
