422 find

[chriskm1968]

found a 422 6'' walnut grips and adj sights for 200.00 otd.
it cleaned up really well. still had the factory grease inside some of it. has some "blue" missing on the sharp edges. i was thinking of using some birchwood casey aluminum black on it, anyone ever used this for touch up? thanks

I bought some years back and tried it in a Winchester 190 anodized aluminum trigger guard. It was blacker and glossier than the trigger guard.

If they make a matte finish it might come closer to a match. Try it and see what it looks like - if you don't like it, it comes off easily with fingernail polish remover.

took it out and fired it today, perfection! i must have one of the first ones because the rear sight isn't pinned in,only a screw that worked loose after 200 rounds, brought it home cleaned it and loctited the screw.
