So I picked up a P245 recently and the finish isn’t horrible, but I would like to send it to CCR for refinishing. Any reason I shouldn’t? It’s not a “collectors piece”, but it’s not something in every gun case either. I guess I’m wondering if it would devalue the Sig??

Thanks all

Just my two cents' worth, but when it comes time for you to sell it, you won't have any trouble doing so, regardless of whether it has been refinished.

Some people will care, sure, but plenty of people won't care.

It's your gun, and CCR has a solid reputation for doing good work. If refinishing it will make you happy, go ahead and do it. You bought it for you, not the next guy, so who cares what he thinks?

I am of the mind unless it is something more or less historically relevant, have at it. It is your gun do what makes you happy and the vast number of P245’s or SIG’s in general fall into this category.

That said if there is any historical or antique significance I feel like we should be more like caretakers for the next generation and leave it be only caring for or repairing where necessary. I would not refinish great grand pappy’s artillery Luger he brought back from the Great War for example.

………and of course all my thoughts and opinions are the correct one’s so that it is written so shall it be done. .

What kind are you thinking of having done just a straight refinish or something different? Just curious and CCR does great work.

Take care, shoot safe and heed my decree’s.

Very good guys, I appreciate it

Hey Chris, sorry… I’m at the grocery store with the fam. Didn’t read your response completely. I’m thinking I’ll take advantage of CCR’s 20% off sale and do something like House black.

CCR House Black would be a great choice!
