Looking good , no matter what . Considering you're doing this in a garage with the door shut , my hat's off to you . I know my garage gets hot even with the door open about a foot .

There's been posts here about the plum color and what causes it . Even S&W's from the factory have it , my 52-2 being one . I can't remember what causes it , but someone will jump in and tell us .

Keep up the good work !
