Adam,
I think the quality of your engraving is better than this later model Trap Gun that I owned. No apparent hand chasing done on my gun. As far as the finish......typical crappy Beretta finish that show's white when scratched...kind of tough to repair. I wouldn't worry about it, When you get enough scratches and dings to annoy you, Refinish with oil....

Regards,
Ken
