Removing Chrome Plating

I acquired a really nice Remington Rand 1911 in a trade which had been chromed. I decided the old war horse deserved to be returned to it's prior glory. I took it apart and took the chrome parts to a chrome plating shop and had them remove the chrome. They charge me 35 dollars. I then sent it to Tim Shufflin Parkerizing in Jeromy, Michigan. Tim parks the M1 Garands I build. Any way the Remington turned out great. Here is a picture and by the way if I didn't tell you I don't think you'd be able to tell it had ever been chromed.
