I have a Benjamin 392 air rifle (.177 cal) that I have had for 16 years now that has a large amount of sentimental attachment for me. Not only does it mean a good deal to me personally, but the Benjamin 39 series is a very solid air rifle, to me in my experience with guns it's the best air rifle there is. It has a nice hardwood stock and pump handle, and the barrel is chrome. I have disassembled the entire gun because over the years it sat for about 8 years and the seals and piston are just gone so it won't hold air now. I have a kit on order so I can rebuild it and once again put it to use. I am going to refinish the stock and I want to refurbish the chrome barrel, but I just don't know the best way to do so. I have read multiple ways/opinions on doing so and I'm not sure of the way to go on doing it because of so many ways I have read. It's not rusted at all, it has just lost its sheen over the years. The first few years I had it the thing was used almost daily during the winter months, rain or shine, so its seen weather. What would you guys say would be the best way to restore its nice shine that it had when it was new? Let's hear some of the best solutions on the web, I know I will because this is GTPlanet after all:tup: Here's a picture of it so you can see the condition, it's for sure not in bad shape for its age, but the chrome has just dulled over the years and I would like to get it looking great again I know its not the best image quality, but all I have right now is my cell phone.
