Can't speak about those specific guns
but once long ago had a Canadian made
Hi-Power contracted for shipment to
China during WWII.

The gun worked wonderfully but it had a
coat of enamel paint on it that looked like
it was laid on with a spatula.

I surmised it was typical war time type
of finish where the polishing process
was skipped and the paint was deemed
more resistant to pitting than normal
bluing.
