What would this rifle been plated with, Bronze, Brass, Gold ? The barrel has some of the plating yet too. In pictures below, The rifle shows a plating, and it is gold looking in color.and seams like pretty tough too. On 1', (actually appears to be 31/32'), can the chamber be cleaned up enough to make a perfect 30-30 chamber from a Sav 303cal.? 721 that the octagonal barrel was cut off 1' at the thread end and rethreaded.
OK, 'experts' are anyone that knows more than what I do.
