<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ronterry, post: 1080093, member: 28569&quot;]I run into the same scenario with classic guns! It&#039;s really a toughy! Common Mauser&#039;s we&#039;ll replace the stocks, reblue the receivers and just over make it 75 years younger. However, a classic Colt - no way!!! </p><p>I just depends! and in every circumstance it depends on that particular firearm! It&#039;s a tough subject, but one thing is for sure - If in doubt leave be!</p><p>It&#039;s funny how similar coins and firearms really are! The original bluing on a classic is like the Luster of a coin. In fact the amount of original bluing can determine the majority of the price much like the amount of Luster that still remains!</p><p>Any contact with chemicals, cleaning, or just handling the coins starts the downward spiral of that ever so important Luster![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
