Howdy folks.
I posted this gun recently as I was considering purchasing it. I did end up buying it for $325.00 and am very happy I did so.
It is an unconverted old model which as you can see has some pretty serious finish issues.
I've read about removing the bluing with vinegar and then perhaps polishing it.
My questions are will removing the bluing and polishing it have any negatives attached to it? Will the gun be more prone to wear, rust etc. I'm not concerned with impacting the value of the gun by removing the bluing as it is already beat up and was an inexpensive purchase.
The gun will be shot allot and I just want it to look less beat up.
What thoughts, concerns and suggestions can you share?
