Is the color a sprayed lacquer on the barrel tube or a heat treated process. Can some one post just a colorful barrel tube , I would like to see  the color  from end to end. Thanks.

This photo is what i was referring to.

I think that's SMF, CF, or Scorpio's gun- laser coloring is the finish. The thin oxide layer reflects white light causing the different colors.

Technically, the glass is always full; half liquid, half air....

Does anyone know where you can get this done?

I have a few SuperMag barrels that I would like to do.

I have a couple of these, 8-inch for a model 40/740.  However, the laser coloring on mine is all blue.  They were the last of DW's stock.  They didn't have any more of the multi-colored ones.

Thats SMF's gun, not mine. My 414 has that barrel but its an SRS gun with fluted shroud.  I'd love to get more barrels and a cylinder done this way but I don't know of anyone doing this.  Would be cool though.

Anything worth doing is worth doing well.

If a man designed it, and a man built it, then a man can fix it.
