Hello TFL,
I recently bought a 1961 blued 4" Python. Accurate, wonderful trigger, solid as hell. Its everything a Python was reputed to be.
The finish shows some wear, the pattern suggests a gun that was often holstered. A possible police gun I think.
All that said, a friend wants to cold blue the worn spots and thinks he can match it up pretty close to the original finsh.
I don't know much about cold blue, but instinct is to leave it as it is as I dont think cold blue is going to offer anything other than a mismatched finish on a sleeper of a gun.
Thoughts?
