For a shooting gun, I can live with the blued receiver. I guess my options are re-casing or having the blueing removed and see if there is any case left underneath (at least I read a thread here once where someone recommended doing that). If it was found to be all worn, I think that the receiver can be treated with a lacquer. I guess after quail season I will need to send her off for some evaluation.
Anybody have a VERY ballpark for recasing a receiver?
Any idea about the rough copper colored fastener located below the safety?
DO the bas eplate screws look correct?
