Would you refinish this or leave it be?

Thanks. It was fun learning about how it works and tearing it apart. I had to clean up years of use.

I wouldn't add cost to a beater gun you got a deal on. it will look prettier maybe, but function the same. Shoot it and enjoy

Call it junkyard digital camo and leave it.

That's what I think is best. Maybe add a shell holder and sling to it and hang it above the door. Make it an everything beater. Rattle can camo would be cool too.

That looks good! Nice job.

I forgot to post a before picture from when I got this back in April 2023.

I also got rid of the push-button safety . . . and removed the rear sight.

That's why I waited so long to do anything with it . . . it needed broken down and cleaned anyway. It was gunky.
