Bobby:
I do not mean to be contrary in any way, but the colour on the frame of your gun can be nicely removed without immersion in any substance, or with any chemical etching effect. The proper method will also retain highlights of the gun's engraving. PM me if you would like more detail.
From your photos, it does not appear that any deleterious polishing was done.
Again, I'm only trying to save a very nice old Parker here...
