Do these colors look right? I think so but what say you?

All the best, Mal

I am looking at a H grade serial #57732 that is at least 95%. Black and white barrels,90%+ real case colors. The only question I can come up with is, the wood looks a little light it would be nice to see more pictures of the butt stock and the forend, also the water table and the bottom of the action.If the case colors have been redone,it looks like a hell of a good job! sfq

Thanks guys, it went at auction this afternoon and will be on it's way to me next week. I'll be glad to post more pictures when it arrives, it's an "I" Grade and they told me the colors were worn on the underside of the receiver where it would have been carried. The wood does look a little too good, maybe just cleaned up? I won't know for sure until it arrives, but they told me it didn't look refinished. Here's all I have now, right click and VIEW IMAGE to see larger.

Was that from RIA? If so I saw it in person and it looks to be very professionally restored, interestingly they had it listed as a Nitro special in the catalogue, and I bid while there but didn't have enough money to buy everything, great gun you should be happy.
