<p>[QUOTE="medoraman, post: 1784983, member: 26302"]If the surfaces were a touch nicer I might think it was just an offmetal strike. I usually recognize fourrees by their surfaces. Usually they have rough surfaces and lack of subtle details. Think about it, they wouldn't have smooth surfaces from surface striking, and needed to be rough to be able to bond with the plating metal. If the fourree core were smooth, the plating would slip off too easily.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
