As of August 1, 2009 Simmons will be rust blueing all barrels that receive a solid rib. The rust blue process immitates the factory process and creates a traditional appearance. The frames and small parts will continue to be hot blued.
All of our restoration processes on the Winchester Model 12's and 42's are highly detailed. The model 12 and 42 stocks are dimensioned precisely to factory originals. The stocks have correct diamond patterns with 22 LPI checkering. The stain color on the wood matches the Pigeon grade that came from the factory. The solid or matte rib has 16 lines and and is attached with soft solder. We use a rust blue and hand buffing to match factory color.
