Recently one of my good buddies came buy for a twice a year little shoot at my place. He brought a gaggle of 32/20's rifles etc. He's in his 70's and is parting with some items. Anyhow he had a Rem No2 Rolling block in 32/20 with a scope. My Son fell in love with it and he haggled him on it and bought it. We took it to a local gunsmith whom does amazing work for us over the years. He is going to rust blue the barrel and a real caseharden finish to the receiver - it will be beuatiful when he is done !.

That's a sweet little #2.

He does amazing work. The Marlin Guide gun and the Marlin 94 were completely burnt. He straightens the barrels . Then heat treats receivers and such parts in a kiln he specially built for such work. He adds ground rawhide after a certain time of 1300 degree temp soak and you can watch it burn then liquify and literally enter the metal !. He has different methods on how to make it flow to or from areas he desires. Just amazing abilities and knowledge. I had a couple olf GI 1911 pistols he reheat treated  - both pre 1919 so they were never heat treated ( basically soft as colt made them ). His treatment put them on par with the 1911A1 heat treating strength.

Here's my 32-20 revolver to go with my rifles. It's a 3rd Model Hand Ejector Target with its vintage Roper grips. All the pieces inside are polished like diamonds. Smooth as silk to operate. Something like 110 years old now. If I only load one cartridge would it be a single shot?

I love the .32-20 Hand Ejector S&W pistols, and that one is very special with the Patridge front sight and adjustable rear. Mine is a fixed sight version more common than your target version.

Your son's rifle is fine as is,  I wouldn't refinish it. I only like to re-do parts guns or basket cases. However, it's his rifle to do with as he pleases. I will say that your gunsmith does beautiful work.
