I have a old colt woodsman, that was blued, which has had a past owner who used metal letter punches to punch in his name and city into the slide. I would like to inlay some steel wire into the punches and restore the slide back to what it should be.
My question is what steel wire should I use, and where can I get it. I will be engraving it after the fix, and will have it re-blues, so I need the metal to match when blued.
Thank for your help. I am just not positive on the wire to use.
