Thanks to all for your help in this..but I am wondering: since the finish is SO nice on this, does that mean guns of this period, aside of the grip issue, can't have a finish this nice??? must it always be suspect that this condition would indicate the possibilty of a refinish?? I recently...

I can't say I understand your definition of "smudgy"..I can say that the stamp /logo is well defined and indented. there are NO 'off focus"/smudgy" or undefined areas of this logo anywhere that I can see. The finish is excellent, but does have some slight muzzle wear and cylinder drag and a few...
