Barrel grooves look somewhat dark. Hard to clean them. My revolver barrel is shiny. Do you guys do some kind of lapping to ml pistol barrels?

Also, the primer nipple flash hole seems very big compared to nipples in my revolver. Nipple thread is propably M6, but what pitch?
If the barrel has gone dark, then that is a metallurigical process and is not reversible, due to the formation of low-grade acids during the powder burn process. It is unsightly, but is not harmful. Some powders do this, and some do not. Yours did. None of mine did.

DO NOT LAP YOUR BARREL! Hege do this as part of the very low volume manufacturing process.

You'll have to call Hege to find out about the nipple - these pistols might be lying in every corner of the gunstore in merry ol' Finland, here in yUK but I've only ever seen one in my life, and that was at a gun show.
