Make sure you post a picture after it's parkerized. I've never seen a Remington Model 11 with such a finish.

Very nice. I have one that was my grandpa's too. It needs new furniture and bluing, but I may wait to see how the park turns out on yours. I haven't touched it, as I'm trying to decide to keep it original or something I can take out and waterfowl hunt with in fields on nice days. That would mean screw in chokes, and I still can't use steel through it.

Keep us posted, you may have just given me the motivation to start on it!
