    NOS Winchester Garand Gas Cylinder

    Picked this up the other day and thought I would post pics if anyone is interested
    Cylinder was sealed in foil wrap inside paper cover
    Manufactured in 1945
    I have read there were two different type finishes WRA used on their cylinders, Dilute and copper vapor plated and blackened . Would this be the blackened type finish?
