This one most definitely does not need a reblue and advising fellow forum members to reblue guns like this is not doing anyone a favor.

An original gun is an original gun only once.
If you like 'pretty' guns that is your free choice, but advising people to throw serious money at a gun with the result of seriously lowering the value is irresponsible in my opinion.

The wear on the feed ramps is perfectly normal.

The photos are way too light and that also distorts the look of the blue om parts like the safety lever. It will look a lot darker and black/blue when seeing it in person.
