Nice early serial numbered 1900 commercial! I was watching it go on AA last night on my smartphone while playing Scrabble with the wife. I think you did fine. And 1900's are ALWAYS pretty! She's just buck naked, that's all.
Many of these guns were sent to tests all over the world.
I vote to leave it be, but it would be a fine restoration candidate!
Congratulations!
