I shot my new Rogers and Spencer BP for the first time this weekend. When I got home I put the cylinder in a cup of hot water with a little dish washing soap (the normal stuff for hand washing) for 30 minutes then cleaned it and rinsed it. When it was dry I found the plating was badly damaged. I am pretty sure it was badly plated but I would like your opinion on this as I am trying to get a replacement from the dealer as I cant see it being my fault!
The finish is pitted and rough in places and judging from the shape and position of the spots it looks like it wasnt cleaned properly before plating. The finish is the "London Grey" which is a nickel plate finish.
Please let me know what you think.
