This gives the metal a dull non-reflective finish that won t reflect as much light to alert game. It is also good for defense weapons because of the lessened light-reflecting quality of the surface. Matte finish is very non-reflective, like the bead blast finish but arrived at in a different manner. In the matte finish the old finish is removed and metal prepared with a wire wheel. This finish has a brushed look.
Hunter finish close to factory finish in looks.
This is accomplished by polishing off the old finish and rust with 140 grit polish. Then the metal is blued. Deluxe Finish is the same as the hunter, but the polishing is taken to a smoother surface with polishing that runs to 240 grit, then blued. Master Finish is same as the Deluxe Finish, but polished down to 500 grit polish, then blued. In all gun parts polishing, extreme care must be taken to not destroy any of the original marking on the gun, round any corners that were sharp, or square any corners that were round.
