I think it would be worth an effort...unlike most of these chrome/nickel horrors, it doesnt seem it was buffed to death before plating....I'd try the deplating solution that Brownells sells, then maybe judicious polishing with emery cloth for the remnants....but then again, I rust blued my vopo at home...I just like rubbing on Lugers ;-)
