So, I picked up the gun yesterday. A 1926 L.C. Ideal grade with nearly full coverage of case colors. The factory protectant was still on most of the case color. The stock finish was pretty good but a little crazed so I figured it was shellac. I tested it with some alcohol and it indeed is. I then tested the protectant on the case color and it is shellac as well. So, now I am in a dilemma do I respray with lacquer or shellac?
