Very nice. Very nice restoration.
I'm baffled with the obsession with "original finish" myself. It's OK to restore cars and houses but not guns? Weird. When I was stationed in Germany I saw loads of lovingly maintained old fire arms. Some had been re-blued several times, stocks refinished, and the value is higher there when the "continued maintenance" has been done. Only here in the USA do we seem to hear, "You ruined that" by refreshing an oily, dark, flattened checkering stock and having the worn-off bluing renewed.
