I'm afraid I must disagree about the loss of value due to re-blueing. Done properly (key words here) the value of a firearm could increase due to a profesional restoration. Primarily depends on the rarity of the firearm being restored. Turnbull restorations is a prime example.
Not trying to ruffle feathers by posting this but folks like myself that prefer restoration over the purists "leave it be" generally get a bad rap for wanting to bring old firearms to their former glory. Not all knicks and dings and scratches are war wounds....

I didn't mess with the wood very much, essentially just a clean up with some 0000 steel wool and two coats of BLO.

Thanks Trez. Now I need to get some ammo to feed it and head to the range. The only 8mm I can find here is at Big 5 and they want $35 bucks for a box of twenty.

Nice, I like it alot! I agree that it looks better with the new blueing. It's not a priceless treasure and I think you should feel free to dress it up and make it look as good as you want to. I think the wood is good the way it is.
