My great grandfather was a chief deputy and carried a model 10 that was nickel plated and had an ivory handle. Sadly this gun has been lost in the family. I would like to buy a new model 10 that looks like that gun. Sadly however, they do not make them nickel plated anymore or even offer a stainless steel version. Therefore I was wondering if it is possible to nickel or chrome plate a new blued model 10 to make it look to part.

1. Is it possible to have a new blued model 10 nickel or chrome plated with a polished finish?
2. If so where is a good place to have this done?
3. Are there any cons to such plating? what about pros?
4. Would it be feasible for me to do it myself properly to save money?
5. Is there a newly made stainless steel model 10 version available that I am just not seeing?

Thank you.
