I'm a new member and was wanting to post a picture of my prewar .357. I was wanting to
get input on if it had been refinished or not.
Without the photo no one will be able to examine
it.

How do I get permission to do this?

Hey ski,

Welcome to the forum. You are probably good to go as far as posting pictures. Give it a try.

If you need a tutorial on how to do it, see bd green's "sticky" above.
