Deejay - I have been out to check on the paint on the SB Mk 40.

It is Hammertone (hammertite, hammer) paint dark green - as per Galmet "Avocado" green.

From the looks of it, this is the original colour.

Mister Bonnar must have got this green paint in 44 gallon drums.

Oh and the handles are nickel or chrome plated

I used to be indecisive. Now I'm not so sure.
