I know someone who just acquired an Iver Johnson 12 gauge. The serial number suggests it's no newer than the '20s. it hasa chrome barrel and a chrome reciever. The forearm is polished aluminum. It looks very well done. Is this some rare production piece? Or just someones very good attempt at machining an aluminum forearm for it? I've never seen any gun with an aluminum forearm before.
