The furniture above is off an old Winchester 190. I've completely refinished it and am waiting for the gloss coat to cure so I can sand and buff to a glasslike luster. The wood is going to be awesome.
However, it's the metal parts on this little auto loader that I'm conflicted about. It has no character to it anymore. All the blueing is gone and the gloss black paint on the aluminum receiver is chipped off and needs to be stripped and repainted.
So, this leads me to my question. Repaint the whole thing in gloss black, or flat black to showcase the furniture???
It's not an expensive gun and having the metal parts ceramic coated or some other baked on finish is going to cost more than the value of the rifle.
I'm leaning towards flat black under the gloss wood. What does the forum think?
