Depends, if rare and a 1916 isn't, then it might be worth it to do so. If your gun is a fun shooter, then it also might be worth it. But a nice restore will cost $400-$600, so cost of the gun, plus $400+, is it worth it?

To many colelctors, once you "reblue or restore" value as a collectable is dropped in half to a third.

WELCOME to the forum Chuck!!

Can you provide pictures of both sides?
