franzas Member Joined Jun 29, 2013 Messages 587 Reaction score 333 Location Richmond, VA Mar 13, 2014 #46 my vote would be for titanium nitride plating. I think this is what IMI uses on their "gold" desert eagles. I would guess if you were to plate the entire revolver, you would have to buff out the chambers and the barrel to maintain the correct bore sizes.

Traces of the gold remain. BBQ anyone? Western pimp: a Stetson, beaver coat, tooled gun belt. PS: Grips are ivory and eyes are rubies.
