Soak it with ATF for a bit then rub with oiled , clean wool sock .

If ya need a little more power use clean oiled 0000 steel wool LITELY !!!!

Rub it with a copper penny....real copper penny, pre-1982.

 

[W.E.G.]

fine bronze wool

NOT steel wool

if you can't find a penny, a nickel will work.

If you can't find a penny, run down to the local stop-n-rob. There's always a bunch laying in the parking lot at mine.

Seriously, I found a product a few years ago that worked very well. Don't remember the name but I think it was something like stainless steel wool, and I used it with a lot of oil to remove some rust spots on a rifle I bought. Worked pretty well and no scratches. Check at a local gun shop and see what they have.

probably not the best choice but I've used the backside of a pocketknife blade. You don't want to touch anything but the rust. It will scratch the bluing. Or use a penny like they say. Then you don't have to be quite so careful.

Ace Hardware, bronze wool, or, as has been posted #0000 steel wool, lots of oil, VERY LIGHT PRESSURE, a little time, and all should be well.
