Ready for my Brown Bear hunt, and a few Dugga boys!

Bob,
Did you have the NECG sight band "nickled" or
What kind of coating did you use ?
Mine came in the white and I can't decide how to protect them .
Your rifle looks most exellant!

I agree with the other posters... Very nice!!!


On the plains of hesitation lie the bleached bones of ten thousand, who on the dawn of victory lay down their weary heads resting, and there resting, died.

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch...
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!

Love it thumb

Can I ask about the powder coating? I assume this was done prior to installation.

Was band and the sights white on the inside surfaces and soldered on to cover all bare surfaces?

Did you consider coating the rings/bases also? Would it have been a problematic to do so (not coat all fitted QR surfaces)

Looking for ideas on weatherproofing a rifle myself.
