Very nice piece.
Yep, after I wiped the factory oils down I applied a light coating of silicone oil. And the finish is extremely smooth - no dimples or dust under the blued 'paint', etc. The only place that I can see getting scratched is the area where the cylinder central pin contacts the frame. Luckily, this is only visible when you swing out the cylinder.

I believe only the cylinder, trigger and other small parts are metal. The frame is plastic, probably ABS, just a good paint job. It's still quite heavy and I plan on adding a 1/2" steel rod in the outer barrel assembly (there's a long, narrow channel) which should add to the overall feel of the gun.
