Hi all,
I need some help. Just picked up a 3 screw unconverted Blackhawk 357 6-1/2 barrel 1968 production. Picked it up for $150.00 some rust, grip frame damaged and extremely dirty. Looks like was fired and never cleaned and stayed in a glove box for 50 years. The caked on grease and dirt needs to come off before I take it apart. What should I dunk the whole fun on for a couple of days to soften up the gunk? I wants to keep what bluing it still has left. Suggestions?
Thanks,
