Best Answer

Browning is controlled red rust Fe2O3 and is also known as pluming or plum brown. One can generally use the same solution to brown as to blue. The difference is immersion in boiling water for bluing. The rust then turns to black-blue Fe3O4. Many older browning and bluing formulae are based on corrosive solutions (necessary to cause metal to rust), and often contain cyanide solutions that are especially toxic to humans.

What would a Browning sweet 16 with a nickel finish be valued at?

Browning never made a nickel finish Sweet 16. They did however have a SAC model that had a chrome finish. Other guns that have a silver look to them are polished steel and usually a high grade gun which includes detailed engraving in most cases. It is recommended that you have a gun shop appraise the gun to be sure that it is a special edition or custom gun versus an aftermarket job. If the gun in question had an aftermarket nickel finish applied to it, it could devalue the gun. Get the appraisal for identification.
