Is there anywhere in Australia that can satin nickel or satin hard chrome a barrel and action ( and floorplate/triggerguard )??????.....or some sort of satin silver finish??
I have two rifles in " plastic " stocks that get used in adverse conditions....snow, water, carried on boats, etc.....and would like to get some sort of protective coating on them.....and the silver looks good in the black stock :roll:
