    Shiny brass will tarnish, brass was used a lot, it's easy to cast and work and doesn't rust so non wear parts often used it, patch boxes, trigger guards etc.
    You won't be disappointed with either I'm picking, but if appearance is important a cat skin cap may be required. Just remove "Mr friskies" coller first
    Skeet, 308 and Micky Duck like this.
