If they aren’t, it’s news to me.
Some things, blueing is great. Many guns/uses, it’s not. I generally keep my classic blued stuff the way it came….until wet and hard use dictate a more durable, practical, and rust resistant finish….then they’ll get coated/treated, too. When you’re watching blued guns rust in front of your eyes in a salt marsh or noticing every scratch they get from limbs, rocks, stands, etc…..you either take pity on them and leave them for the tea sipper hunts, or give them some protection beyond having to keep a jug of oil in your pack.
