When I was younger I learned of blood guns. What is this you ask? It's a gun that has had blood on it's surface that has removed the blue along with with blood once cleaned. This generally leaves the metal surface mirror smooth. One would assume the majority of these occur due to combat or suicide. A good friend and gun smith once told me a true blood gun surface will not accept bluing once blood has has removed the old bluing.
I have seen many with finger prints of missing blue, others that look as if they had been through a long fire fight in a pair of bloody hands. I can't say this is true, but had no reason to doubt him.
For me I may just be a bit superstitious, but to this day I will pass on any and all guns that in my opinion look to be blood guns. I might take a chance if it's a WWI or WWII firearm, but would still probably think twice. That's just my take.
That said, what are your thoughts? What it fact? What is Fiction? What do believe, Real or false? Does it matter to you if it's a blood gun.
Will you buy one? why?
Do you also refuse to buy them. Why?
