Gold Plating Removal????
How much of a problem is it to have Gold plating removed from a firearms receiver and have it blued? I mean the ENTIRE receiver is gold plated, before I take the plunge I want to ensure I can get it off and make it look right again.

Thanks.

To chemically remove it they usually use cyanide - not for the do it yourselfer !! It is very thin and might be taken off by polishing easy enough.Try in a litle spot.

Also has the 'advantage' of removing house, furniture, car, bank accounts, future income (in Oz, anyway),,, all sorts of things you didn't even know you had!!

You'd be amazed at how simple life can be!!
