I will have to try some grip savers. I have some really expensive shotguns and I’ve shot them a lot. I mean A LOT. They have some dings and bluing wear, even though I take good care of them. If you use stuff it looks, well, used. I have a few pistols I shoot a lot - 3,000 to 5,000 rounds a year through each. I don’t expect them to look like safe queens, which I have zero use for. I know guys who have guns refinished if there’s one ding in the wood or the tiniest amount of bluing wear. Seems like a waste of time and money to me. When guys buy guns to put in the safe and just look at I wonder if they married a gorgeous woman would they just look at her, or take her to bed? I know which camp I’m in!
