I haven't caustic blued anything for 25 years, but, I believe the consensis is that the 4140 cast steel simply wasn't left in the salts long enough. This cast steel can be a bitch to rust blued. As for collectors, chances are they will say it isn't "original" if it hasn't turned this ugly plum color.
