The main problem with a frame that has been blued is that it was probably polished diminishing the engraving and the possibility that the barrels might have been hot blued. I bought a GH 20 bore years ago that had the frame blued. The barrels were rust blued and the engraving was not diminished. Whoever did it had the common sense to use a light touch on the frame. I removed the blue from the frame, a very easy thing to do, and have used the gun for years. Blued frame guns are not hopeless. It depends on how it was done.
