Great advice, Daryl. Years ago, I bought a wonderful Tournament Grade two barrel set from a shop in Annapolis. It was about the same condition as the one pictured here. I sent it away to have the metal reblued. It was a great job, but I just couldn't live with that great old gun in new condition. I sold it cheap, because no one wanted a shiny new 100 year old Model 12. I won't make that mistake again. Somehow, Winchesters are not the same as old double guns. You can't bring a Winchester back from a bad refinish or even a good one.
