I would greatly appreciate any firsthand knowledge of competent gunsmiths who will accurately re-create the proper finish and look of the original rust blue. Thanks, Marc

My only complaint is that the barrels dont match the gun, they look like Purdey barrels instead of Greener barrels now. Hardly a real complaint, I couldnt be happier with the job he did. Now Glenn, check your email, I need your help and expertise again ;-) Dustin

My intent was to say that the gun is a mid-grade gun with flawlessly finished barrels. They are 10x better than when they originally came out of the Greener factory. Glenns rust blue is so good its scary. Dustin
