I would suggest you don't let anyone touch any part of that gun except to simply clean the mechanical aspect of it. Those finishes are probably all original and need to be kept that way in order to keep its value. Any refinishing will severely diminish its value.

Just be aware, you won't get order book info because the order books ended i n Dec 1919 before your gun was built. You'll get the build specifications from the stock book.
