To Strip or Not To Strip

This is a BSA .22 Mercury Challenger Carbine I refinished some time ago. I don’t normally like gloss, but it came out so pretty. And has a fine British blue job to match. Period 4x Bushnell Sportview scope. The repainted back block and trigger guard are flawless. Recut the checkers.
