May be very old reblue or touch-up. Muzzle is blued and shouldn't be. Still, a pretty nice looking example and not a bad price.

Default Collection quality

It seems that everyone must ask himself the question of what kind of quality he wants his collection to be. Just like the quantity, purpose, timing, as to your collection. I just purchased a 1917 Artillery that the seller said he had originally purchased an artillery but it wasn't real nice so he sold and bought a better one; and then did that several times and finally ended up with this really nice one and kept it for 35 or 40 years. Then sold it to me as he was getting up in years. His relatives didn't want or didn't appreciate it so he sold it.
Different strokes for different strokes as the old saying goes.
thanks
Jack

Ron -- Great catch! I missed the muzzle. It's so dark and complete definitely more than patina.

Another thought, some gun description has "dark bore" clause, could that extend to "dark muzzle"? This gun's description says the bore being frosty.....
