WOW, dont think I have ever seen a factory barrel look like that, it really stands out. Most of the regular production Auto Mag barrels are shades of gray, not black. Amazing work.

Thanks George .....some of us may not like it but just my own take on things & after seeing some Pasadena & TDE units with very dark label stencils like Jeffrey Kelley I seem to really like the darker look

Not sure if we are looking at the same guns or not, but your work looks much darker than the others. Not just darker, but there is some additional tonal quality you have added that brings out a super strong contrast that is almost like gloss black paint. Its really quite stunning. Bet it would look great on a polished barrel. Kudos! GH

Maybe the gloss that you are seeing could be the light oil coating I put on. |

Thank you Andy, making those cuts in the clear tape is tedious work through the microscope. |
