Some have told me the 'dent" is a deal breaker.. can be raised,,but some don't trust the strength of barrel anymore.. I don't know.. Dent is about 14" from barrel face you can see the shadow looking down the otherwise bright shiny bore. Both bores are nice and shiny.. If after the dent was raised, so as to be functional, I wouldn't worry about a re blue if it left a mark.. Touch up with cold blue will be fine.. This would be a utility gun..
