Yes Paul - the wood can have a refinish without the checkering being recut. That's probably the way to go with the scratches.

The one thing I won't even consider is having the case hardening redone. IMO the original case colors are somewhere around 60-70% and look really nice this way.

I agree on that route.

I only will have Brad do what is necessary to clean the gun up to make it good to go for the next hundred years.

Well done Paul!

As long as the gun is at Brad's, I would have the barrels completely repaired and refinished. Laminated barrels are beautiful when "new". I will have my 20 gauge PH Laminated steel gun redone some day.
