Looking good Fontainebleu, looking good indeed.

What calibre is it and how did it get christened "Gustave"

Very nice Fontainebleu. Does it have a coating like Ceracote on it or is it a form of parkerising. Just does not look like a normal blue job, whatever it is I like it.

Its a form of matte guncoat, I asked for a matte color which didnt cast any reflections
