Well, no re-blue. I can clearly see strawed parts and holster wear on the side plate.

How do you post pictures on this site?

Sorry I'm posting these pictures one by one with the link.

Can you take a better picture of the top of the toggle, I had a hard time seeing what was on top of the toggle. Otherwise it looks fairly correct as a pistol, and very plum. Most fascinating.

Well, these are the pictures, opinions welcome. Mike

Hi Mike,
Well, the pictures are bloody horrible, so with that caveat I'd have to say that the finish looks original.
Regards, Norm

Mike, grab yourself a heapin' eyeball full of the stickies in the New Collector section. There are descriptions for both how to upload pics to a post as well as how to take them so they're coherent to us! What the stickies are for, like the FAQ, is so that someone doesn't have to field a question in the "EATT" (Explained A Thousand Times) category every time one appears--and it happens quite frequently as the forum acquires new blood.
