Just picked up a Carcano (Terni Fucili Corto - 6.5 with gain twist rifling) that needs alot of love. I think I've gotten the bore from looking like a complete loss to just having dark grooves (lots of patches and Hoppes #9). This rifle however has quite a bit of rust/pitting on the top of the buttplate and some surface rust on the bolt. I'm wondering what I can do (other than just cleaning as best I can and coating with a preservative) to neutralize the rust?
Any suggestions? I don't want to destroy any of the gun's "Character" or remove the patina that comes from surving the last 70 years.
any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Hae a good one,
Dave
