Things come and go. Berettas made in the 80's were caked with even thicker coats of poly-whatever than the Repros. Now, thankfully, better Berettas have an oil finish. I agree that collector guns should be left alone, however they are finished. Nonetheless, I like an oil finish because it looks better and minor scratches are easily fixed. Plastic will accentuate such damage and is difficult to repair. Since I have no intention of taking my gun scuba diving an oil finish suits me better.
