So here is what I have, a Model 29-2, Pin and recess, 8 3/8th, with a Leupold scope mt. The nickel is peeling off the frame and the cylinder. Where is a reputable, honest priced place to get this Hard Chromed. I would think this would be tougher than the nickel, if anyone has any other suggestions let me know. I thought about stripping the nickel off, and just hot blue it, which I do myself, but this is nice piece, very little wear on the firearm at all. I have taken 2 deer with it, has some sentimental value, was gifted to me by a friend who has since passed on. The thing is insanely accurate, with a 3x scope it shot around a little over an inch at 50 yds sandbagged and about 2.5-3 inches at 100yds, with 240 gr JHPs. All help appreciated.
