If the gun is chrome plated do we still have to ask if it has a chrome lined barrel

Bushmaster Vietnam Tribute pre-ban. I was just thinking of doing something like this with a Nodak upper and lower set; buy then in the white, then have them blued, slong with all metal parts and then get a set of wood furniture from IWD; probably embed an NRA Medallion I have of the M16 and have a very nice display M16A1... Just an idea.

Not my kinda thing at all, but if I just had to have one, it'd be a commemorative model like this:

I think those types of guns are interesting. However, I would never own one because:
-I wouldn't shoot it. Too much to clean, for SHTF it stands out like a sore thumb, expensive to replace parts and have them re-dipped/plated. The exception to this would be if I was a millionaire, and could afford to have a tricked out plinker plated in gold just because. -I wouldn't showcase it. It would seem cool to have hanging on the wall or in a glass cabinet, but that (IMO) goes against firearms safety. I will never leave a gun out of a safe unattended, and no point in having a nice looking gun hiding in a dark safe all the time. |

Quoted:
can aluminum be chromed? Yup and so can plastic! I had a neighbor who loved to blow money and he found a company that would chrome plate a bunch of plastic/abs parts on his motorcycle. They came out pretty good, too. That leads me to believe you can chrome plate almost anything with the proper process. |
