Thanks Dean, been a while since around here. In the meantime, got to go turkey hunting with and meet David Boyles...,great guy! what is your favorite way to "clean" an old double?

Effective, but not so draconian as to affect what finish is remaining? The gun is super straight, and much better than the sellers pics. There is a little surface rust on the action, thing ballistol and 0000 steel wool on action and barrels? As it is an 1875 gun, would a D grade equate to a $200 grade? Hopefully the letter will let us know. The barrels ring nicely. Is it a detractor to apply ink to the action and wipe down to make engraving stand out?

Glad to be back! Waiting to find something as cool as the GH 12 bore "3" frame I found a few months ago.
