My plan was to polish the whole revolver but I got to thinking, is all of the metal on the stainless steel Uberti SAAs stainless or just the frame?

All the "exterior" parts on my Uberti stainless SAA are made of stainless steel. However, the internal parts, hand and hand spring, main spring and bolt/trigger spring are not. My original plan was to have a SAA revolver that I could shoot with black powder and not to have to totally disassemble for cleaning. Stainless steel will still rust when exposed to corrosive materials, it just rusts slower.

Your thought process is exactly what I have in mind. Plus I'd like to polish up the outside to resemble a nickel finish that is more durable.

my uberti Remington 58 is all stainless. the conversion cylinder is nickel plated it matches pretty close.
