I have a question, do I sell it as is or get it restored?

It all depends on the size of your wallet, the knowledge you have about The Gun, finding the right restoration specialist and your patience.

Wow another high grade undiscovered. Hedley you need to post pictures and proceed very carefully with a AAHE. If the gun is "all there" and in worn but mostly original condition full restoration rarely makes sense. Go slow and ask many questions. Craig Larter
