Spent a little bit of time last night on my '51.
It was about time to show it a little bit of love. Been a good shooter (albeit a little high) and it deserved a little attention. I buffed up the brass and did a little re-finish of the stocks. I think it looks pretty good!
I tore it down to give it a good cleaning and man, was it filthy inside! Glad I took the time.
I'm trying a product called RPM (Rust Prevention Magic). The guy says that it prevents oxidation-- even on brass. So, I figured I'd give it a whirl and see if she dulls out after a while. We'll see. It doesn't leave a greasy film or anything that you can feel on the surface. Supposedly, it goes down into the pores of the metal.
Just thought I'd show her off a little bit while she was out and about. Hope y'all like her.
