Normally i say leave chrome and nickle guns alone as that is part of their history, however, I removed the nickle from a rare 1936 police luger (friend sold it for me later),
as I believed that a rare gun like this should be returned to its originality.

So, with cost involved, etc, is it worth it to restore it, as the finish under the chrome or nickle won't be there.
