My Mrs gave me her dad's Chief (off duty) after he passed on. She applied for her permit and unbeknownst to her I sent it off to S&W for reblue. It was about 70% when sent in. I requested their Hi Gloss Blue and sent a nice letter explaining it's history. It took them a little over 4 months, but was worth the wait. They did an incredible job and knocked off $50 bucks from the estimated price of their bright blue finish. She got her permit and was she ever surprised. I had to show her the paperwork from the factory, she thought I traded her dad's gun for a new one.

I would definately send a gun back to the factory, just don't expect it back in a week or two, ain't gonna happen.
