Finish on AH Fox receiver
Gentlemen... I am new to Old sxs's . I just bought a AH Fox AE Grade. When I received the gun the receiver looked like a silver color. Engraving and all. As I did some reading about the 1927 gun. I read somewhere that they made the receivers with some kind of nickel something kind of steel. I went and shot it when I first got the gun then took it home and cleaned and oiled it up. I took it out a week or two later and it seemed the receiver was turning black.Looks like its tarnishing. I used 3 in one gun conditioner. It says its cleans, lubricates and prevents rust all in one. I forgot who makes it but it was a well known name.
Any suggestions . should the tarnish be something to be concerned about ??
Thanks for any incite concerning this matter as I am about to start panicking about my beautiful gun.
