I am,sorry, but I didn't think anyone was being condescending to him. He was asking a question about a tricky repair. The posters responding had no idea of his knowledge or experience level. How many guns have been ruined by someone trying to home smith an issue that was beyond them?

After he made clear he had experience and wasn't someone trying to Bubba their gun advice and suggestions were Offered.

Helping people on this forum is as much about preventing them from damaging their guns as it is anything else.

While I was comfortable refinishing my stock, I wouldn't be at all offended if some of our more experienced members said I didn't need to try taking off my rib and putting it back on or recheckering my stock.

Oh and I agree with you Brian, I have seen spot bluing on colts, remingtons, and browning and it never looks quite right. Like you say though, it's a matter of opinion.
