Thanks to both of you!

I don't mean plain in a bad way at all, just not colored. The engraving is really exquisite and in great shape for the age of the gun.

And yes, Owen, I'm definitely hoping to get in the field with it a lot. The barrels were replaced in 1973, so they should be in fine shape to shoot. I'm going to check the wall thicknesses but expect them to be in proof.

I am really just wondering if there is any standard for which parts to blue/black/brown when refurbishing a British gun of this era.

I'll probably take the advice from both of you and keep it as it is.

Thanks again
