Another S&W I recently acquired - a nickel plated model 15.
This revolver is in good condition, but being that I never owned and am not familiar with nickel plated firearms I don't know if the small, light scratches on the entire gun are normal or not. It's not quite like brushed stainless, a little finer. Doesn't seem like wear since it's very evenly distributed on typical wear areas and not so exposed areas as well.
Is this the way they came from the factory or is it the result of someone trying to polish it?
A noob question maybe, but just never seen many nickel plated firearms.
