1914 Luger - What should I do?

Dwight Gruber · 08-28-2008, 01:26 AM

I had a nickel-plated gun for awhile, the bright reflections were really annoying during shooting. Over time I have come to the conclusion that I really don't care for Shiny Lugers.

So, this may be an opportune place to ask a question which has been in the back of my mind: is there a chemical or metallurgical process which can be applied to darken/blacken nickel and chrome finishes?
