Thanks for the replies. After close inspection it does appear to have possibly been re-blued and re-varnished. If it is refurbished all the more reason to keep it. The tube magazine is protruding past the barrel about a 1/4 inch. Seems to be escaping from where it should be attached near the receiver. this doesn't look right, but my smithing skills are only for my invaluable weapons. So, I don't dare mess with it. Would any of you like to see pics anyways?
