My father has in his possession a shotgun that has been passed down for several generations. It's a late 1800's 'Richards' double barrell made in Belgium. From my research, this is a budget gun of little collector value. But it has obvious sentimental value.
The metal has a dark patina, and surprisingly the only rust I can find is in the groove between the two barrels and on the butt plate. Wood is in decent shape.
Should I just oil it up and stick it back in the softcase it's currently living in? Or something more?
