Bill, assume they are chrome lined. To my knowledge all or most of them in that time were. Good guns with a through bolt in the stock. Strong. Butt ugly wood with some sort of plastic finish. The Webley 700 is also a good gun (I've owned a number of them. Usually plain wood with a subpar oil finish but durable. Engraving on the Bernadelli is stamped in. The Webley is hand cut, though quickly executed. Between the two I lean towards the Webley, maybe I'm snobbish, dunno. Both guns will probably be chambered 2 3/4".
