I knew a fellow pigeon shooter some years back who used to clearcoat case colored Perazzi MX 8 receivers. (He also played, and restored guitars)
I often wondered if the same process would work on laminate barrels.
BTW, I used to do auto body and paint restorations on street and show cars. Back in the early days, we used lacquer, which when properly done would give impossibly perfect results. Just wouldn't last as long as the enamels, and urethane finishes that came along later.
