Title: Re: Too reblue or not to reblue

I have a M1898 carbine that the previous owner had blued. Oh it looks oh so pretty but it was a perfect example but it lost value because of the bluing and it had a beautiful carbine stock. The problem is it was a six hundred dollar stock reduced to a one hundred and fifty dollar stock because it has screwed in sling swivels.

I'll try and dig it out and get pictures.
