It has been my experience that any refinished American gun, blued or case colored, is a "refinished" gun. . . granted, some, like Turnbull's, are fabulous looking guns but are, nonetheless, what they are...
The statement a poster made about the Purdey is incorrect. An original Purdey, like an original Parker, is worth more than one that is refinished. Of course, a naive buyer can inflate the value of any piece of junk in his own mind if the seller cooperates.
