    Refinish on Colt M1911?

    I'm helping acquaintance price a few firearms he has and one of them is this Colt M1911 from 1914. Obviously, the grips are replaced. The barrel appears to be a Flannery from WWII ( he said it has an F on the lug). What I want to know if it this looks like a refinish from the pictures. I'd guess a reblue, but determining finishes on firearms tend to give me fits (Just ask John Beardicon on the M1903 forum!!)

    Ballpark idea of worth?

    TIA

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered. Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle.
