IMHO , You touch that gun with anything but oil you arnt right in the head ! I may put a little WD40 on a cloth and remove that paint. You dont want that gun in that condition I know for sure that there is many of us that would.

I had the best gunsmith west of the Atlantic check out my new DH.
Minimum barrel wall thickness of .030 each barrel.
Tight on face and hingepin, carried moderately, shot less.
Bore diameter of .730
.038 choke right
.040 choke lest
2 5/8 " chambers

I shot a Federal paper hull, 1 oz @ at 1150 FPS at 5100 PSI.
Beautiful patterns at 30 yards.

Whats the value of a 1 frame Damascus, 80-85% overall condition??
