does not look like a high heat, bone charcoal recoloring job...

consequently, receiver metal integrity has most likely not been disturbed. gun should be safe to shoot with light loads without fear of receiver cracking or injury to shooter?

but then one never knows, does one? which is why receipts for refinish work are so important...have seen more than one old fox with cracked receiver, due to improper heat treating when receiver was recolored via high heat process.
