Bluing finishes can be fixed and I would not expect the original finish to be there anyway. If it is mechanically sound and unaltered in anyway that would be permanent, like a stock cut down or barrels chopped, I would not think the price is necessarily out of line.

Compare to this different, but similar gun.
