Mills;
Your gun looks great with the original patina left in intact. Brian did a nice job retaining it, the barrels look great; now go out and enjoy it in the marsh.

Thanks Daryl. The engraving on the receiver is worn. Brian cleaned it up and removed dents, etc. We did not recut the engraving or re case color it, basically because we did not get around to it (or I did not). Now looking at it, I kind of like that some of the gun's patina has remained and will probably just leave it alone. More photos to come.
