no i have no concerns, i am not getting things that hot. i completely dissembled the lock, i did not put any heat at all on the frizzen/hammer, i cold blued that part.Fire bluing, are you just getting to that color and taking the heat away? Or do you go above that heat range and it settles back? No concern about metal integrity on parts like the cock?
Just curious cuz I've never done it.
Would the fire blue potentially soften the cock and frizzen? And should be avoided.no i have no concerns, i am not getting things that hot. i completely dissembled the lock, i did not put any heat at all on the frizzen/hammer, i cold blued that part.
