Greeting and Merry Christmas All,
I own a S&W Model of 1905 4th Change that my dad gave me recently. It was nickel plated from the factory ( I think ) and it is starting to show it's age. I was wondering if any one could recommend a company to refinish it. The local gun shop told me it isn't worth refinishing, based on market value. It only has sentimental value. I find this to be especially interesting, the first two digits in the SN are the same as the year my dad was born, the last two are the same as the year my mom was born and one of the patent dates is the same as my birthday.
