Let be clear going in I have no desire to be historically accurate with the faux side lock Juker Pennsylvania-ish .......more a Carolina I think ....... Not the point .
Through the years I've grown fond of "gun metal grey" kind of , it's that greasy slick color on your best Shrade Imperial carbon steel knife a few days after you dressed that first bird or rabbit . Blood bluing if you will .
I have this more or less finished Juker Spanish rifle that until last weekend I had forgotten was even around still which is a bit of a story in its own . It's probably a 30+ yr old cheap kit that looks good in a Monet kind of way . You know if you stand way back and squint a little it looks good but up close it hard to tell what it is . Anyway ...... Is it worth a try to get that or should I just let it go on to the hot tank . I don't have the stability of time to brown it . But it would be well worth soaking up some meat tray juice or getting a bucket of chicken livers and directions to go long line some catfish .......
