Well, at least Smith & Wesson is still refinishing the 3rd gen's. Sent them a scratched up 4506. Guy had tried to polish the flats. Otherwise, shoots like a dream.

Sent it to them and 2.5 months later, and got back a factory new looking 4506!

Guess gun refinishing is different than gunsmithing? But you have to disassemble the gun to refinish it. So why not "swap" out parts from customers????
