How were Tikka M65 rifles originally blued?

I am thinking of having a classic Tikka M65 refinished professionally but haven't been able to find information on how these rifles came out of the factory OEM, in the sense was the bluing a more satin finish, gloss or high gloss .. does anyone know?

If I'm not mistaken, the Deluxe was high-gloss, and the standard was not. I'm just going by the guns I've seen though - not really sure what was going on at the factory. I guess it just comes down to how much effort and time you want to put into polishing, and the look you're going for. If you're redoing it, you can have it whichever way you want.

That's true. Thanks for your input.
