    Painted pistol

    Hi Guy, I once bought a 1930s Diana Boys Model which was painted silver. I used some Aldi paint thinner on it, and underneath was a very nice chrome-type finish, which was pretty good, and had been protected by the crappy paint job. Maybe the same has been done to your gun, as it has obviously been seriously messed with by a gun-butcher!

    Regards,

    Ian
