Bill - the barrels had a very poor blue job. Whoever did it blued the whole thing, did not even remove the ejectors. From the pictures it had that suspicious sheen of hot blueing. At the price George sold it the ribs could be relaid and you'd still have been money good, and I think he knew what he had. I recognized the gun and knew about how much Mr. Tommyguns paid for it so I did not bid it up. He was not going to bust his margin on me; still, an interesting piece.
