Opinions welcome before I ruin my gun. I’ve never been a huge fan of how my Uberti 1873 looks. Dare I say the finish is too pristine for an action designed in 1873.
I was thinking about aging it, wearing the bluing in some spots, and stripping off the wood varnish to finish with oil and wax.
What do you think? Will I kill the resale value?
(Yes the muzzle is threaded)
