Sterlingworth receiver finish question

Post by HardCash »

I just received my 1st Sterlingworth. What is the finish on the receiver ? Is it a plating, like nickel ?

The finish on the receiver should be color case hardening. If it is shiney like nickle someone has very possibly polished the receiver.
