I saw the gun today. Very nice. Almost seemed too nice. The roll stamping on top of the barrel were more crisper than the sides. Almost seems as if the metal was expanded more and deeper on the sides compared to the top and then blued. It may be correct but it is hard to tell. Maybe because the lettering on top was of a smaller font?? Did not smell of any cold blueing. The seller was a nice guy. The gun belonged to his father and now looking to sell it. I offered $400.00. No box or papers. Anyone have further thoughts please let me know.
