Nickel plated revolvers were somewhat popular in the South and a few other jurisdictions in the past. I have several ex-cop guns in nickel and one of them (a S&W model 19-3 issued to Customs and Immigration officers in 1970) is used for concealed carry. I have read in the past that some "experts" advised against a shiny gun for SD but the reflective drawbacks they warned against don't really concern me. If I pull it the muzzle flash will be much brighter than any light reflecting off the nickel.
Anyone else packing a shiny gun?
