Its a shame the guns were recoated for the NRA loan. Just a hideous attempt all around. Much of the original finish was carelessly removed by improper moulding for the film so the other was toned down to match. Thats why both live fire guns look so much brighter in the film than they did in the series. Poor guns cant get a break even in retirement. For an idea of how terribly done that refinish is, this is one of the live fires next to my Phil casting after production wrapped on the film as compared to the white glove NRA picture posted prior.
As the two live fires were in the process of being modified for the film I can tell you the fitting of every single part was clanky and wobbly including the grips. After the modifications and complete tear down and reassembly, they were battle worthy. As per the grips, even after the rebuild they were what they were as they were filed down by hand to fit, just as real world western guns were.
