new barrel to 7.65?

It is difficult to fully remove plating without having to buff again - if say nickle or chrome, then it can come off, but when I had mine done (I cold removed the nickle), the refinisher for me said that he had to manually take left over plating in crevices, etc.

If you want one that is original, then you can find a shooter for cheap (Don has one for cheap right now).

------------
Otherwise, cost of removal and rebluing you are talking $300-$600 and thats almost a new shooter
