Thank you all so much for the info. It all looks actual aged, not fast aged reproduction. The leather has the right smell, too. As for the loading tool, I can't tell if it is a repo or not. It has that look and age to it that would be hard to fake. This just looked good, from the gut. I am the worst in trying to figure out re-blue or not. This didn't have the smell, there was wear on some high marks, but it was a beautiful, high percentage blue. I really like it, so your comments and ifo help.
