caz223- I've had 2 715s, and about 10 Model 15s, and I've never seen anything like plated internals in any of them. I bought one of the 15's at a pawn shop with a severely pitted barrel. It shot fine. Not quite as accurate as the ones with the pretty barrels, but close. None of my DW guns has had any problems with light strikes, or anything but the known issues of what happens with too long of a grip screw.

You just got a junker that someone messed up, it seems.
