Buffed, Reblued, Boosted - Need Advice

Luke, I'm really glad you asked the question. I'd like to up the ante a little bit, and say that what would really be useful, particularly for those of us who are relatively new to this and don't have a reference library, would be a brief compendium of stamping practices--what stamps went on which guns before polishing and bluing and which went on after; what special characteristics might appertain to particular guns; and what commonly seen fakes/boosts we might recognize.
