i got a trigger housing group from numrich
wra housing and trigger guard..sa hammer...not sure about the rest of it.
..
it was pretty dry with some rust. i dissasembled it and applied cold blue to the big parts(housing, saftey and trigger guard). they look much better now... the other parts seem to be okay with a little steel wool and oil.
just wanted to know if bluing is 'proper'.
...
thx,
goo

Phosphating (Parkerizing) is "proper." Personally I wouldn't worry about that part very much.

Hey Goo, get some Brownell's Dicropan....
much better than cold blue, it gives a nice "parkerized" appearance to the metal. I prefer the cream style as I think it is easier to blend.
Just an FYI.
