Hey guys. A friend of mine pointed me to this thread. I inherited my grandfather's old .32-20 and I was hoping you guys could give a ballpark estimate of when it was made.

also, whether or not the gun can (or should) be cleaned up and polished back to it's original luster? One side is clean with typical scratching but the other side is corroded and the inside (cotton or wool) lining of the bag it's been stored in for who knows how long is green from the corrosion.

Thanks for any info
