Curious if somebody on this site was able to get the factory CCH 1S 45-70 at Amoskeag this past weekend?
I believe it to be one of several guns that went to Turnbull Restoration in 1992 for color case hardening. In that group of guns was one or two Super Bearcats we heard at the time (would have been original Super Bearcats) as well as who knows what else. I believe Ruger probably sent some Blackhawks that direction as well as Ruger was shopping for a nice finish (also economical) to put on their 1993 release Vaquero.
