Matt,


A good restoration is sometimes difficult to determine, but on a "byf" or the later salt blued pistols,look at it under different light sources. Sunlight, incandecent, flourescent, etc. and see if you can notice any odd changes in the bluing. Another thing is the blue wear pattern on the pistol. These seen to be fairly consistant from being held and in/out of the holster. This wear can be faked, but it is difficult to do and make it appear correct. Keep us informed of the pistol when it arrives.
