Found this lil rust bucket. She fires. I think its a baby browning clone???. It says, made in Spain.
A tender hand with some 0000 steel wool with oil is all that needs.That is pretty slick PeeJay!
I will give it a try. This would be my first try to clean something like this up. My LGS had this sitting around on a shelf for a few months, its been calling my name. Lol.. I thought it would make a good learning experience.A tender hand with some 0000 steel wool with oil is all that needs.
Chainfire, I hope you got your ears on my friend. I'm getting ready to start to tackle this project and I'm looking for some reassurance.... 0000 steel wool with some oil and just rub rub rub the rust away??? This is my first attempt to recondition a firearm
I can post more pictures. This is a learning experience "project". No real value to gain. Saving the bluing, not an issue. I was thinking about having it cerakoted to look rustic... Sounds crazy but yes, clean off the old, to have it painted to look old.
PJ ..... check out the video on rust blueing on the net . You can do a small gun like that in your kitchen . I use that brownells stuff & it worked good on the guns I did . My set up is for long guns but small stuff I do in the kitchen . ( no wife to yell at me with gun parts all over the counter top ! )Yes, idea's.... Please..
