Hi Austin,
What’s your real interest in it? It’s a bit off to come on here and say my 138-year-old gun looks worn. This piece has never been in the field and has never been used. The patina on the metal and the darkened wood are simply the marks of time—it’s essentially a museum piece. No checks in the wood, no scratches. I’d love to see photos of your 138-year-old gun so we can compare conditions.
