Do you do refinishing??? I would be interested in seeing your work...I hate sanding/buffing/polishing...But since most of my latest interests are wartime mfg, then tool marks are acceptable (preferable IMO)...

The satin finish most likely comes from blasting...I do bead, sand, and walnut shell blasting, but again, it is not something seen on wartime weapons...

From the look of the contact arc of the safety, this cutaway has not been safed/cycled much, if at all...You would expect that a demonstration piece would have more handling marks than appears on this one...

What do the Chinese characters say???
