I have a top-breal H&R 38S&W revolver coming, off an auction. It has a painted finish, as opposed to bluing or nickel.
I collect Savage 1907s and I know that Savage, just after WWI, tried "painted" pistols for a while until feedback told them it wore off so rapidly.
Who can tell me the scoop on these revolvers with a black painted finish... pre -WWII Lend-Lease, maybe?
