I'd do absolutely nothing with it for one year. Then, I'd decide once the honeymoon phase was over.

If you case color it, from what I understand*, you'll have to get someone to first 'polish' the metal then recut the engraving. Lotta money, and then the engraving has been recut. You might just learn to like it well enough as it is. Even blued, it's a great gun.

*I'm still not convinced the guys who are case coloring these guns are doing it right...admittedly I've never tired it but I am fairly sure one could prep a receiver for case hardening without polishing or recutting.
