Hmm. They're doing that? Those guns are made by Pietta in Italy and then Heritage does the final finish, fitting and assembly. It's entirely possible they're doing real nickel. I haven't seen one...

Odd thing: this is the only known example of a Pietta with a transfer-bar ignition (read: modern drop-safe system for six-up carry).
