Gew 98

The "brownish" color is patina or natural rusting of the metal over time. Like fine wine, this authentics a rifles age.

Stripping or refinishing this eliminates the rifles history and, as a consequence, its collector value.

I say leave it alone and enjoy her as is but she, along with the choice, is in your hands.

By the way, did you get one of those gew 98s from collectors source ?

Pictures of your newest addition to the safe family are welcome here ;).

You can post pictures if you get an upgraded CGN account on a yearly basis or something along those lines.

I have used photobucket for so long now that is it just habitual.
