As with any firearm, the only way to preserve its pristine condition
and collector appeal is to never handle or fire it, which in turn would
deprive you of much of the enjoyment that comes with owning a fine
Browning firearm.
While special finishes such as engraving and gold plating greatly
enhance the aesthetic appeal of your firearm, please be aware that
they are no more durable, and in some cases may even be slightly
less durable than more common gun finishes.
As you use your Browning firearm, you can expect special finishes
to wear in much the same manner as any other firearm finish. These
marks are the honest product of the hours spent enjoying your
firearm and each scuff and scratch will probably have a good story
to go along with it.
