I understand the plum aging and have a couple but the purple coloring came from batches with an accidental, inferior titration - a bad mix that reacted in an un-intended color and unstable oxidation, therefore changing over time or environment. So I'm very interested in how Ruger intends the coloration aside from dyes. :?: The purple comes from the baths, not the metal.
'course, that is where they ended up with the SA "case-coloring".
Post copious pics and review this adventure here please...
