    Any Feedback?

    Quick question about plating receivers with replaceable trunions, like Perazzis, Berettas, etc. Are those supposed to be removed prior to plating? If they're not, what happens? Do they get plated in place (like painting a window shut?) What happens when you later have to replace the trunions?
