Hi All:
I'm looking at purchasing a rifle that has some pitting and rust on the barrel and receiver. It is not deep but is fairly sizable. Largest spot is the size of two quarters.
What are my options for repairing the pitting? And then once repaired, am I limited to a GunKote or Parkerized finish, or can it be re-blued?
This is not a "fine" piece or antique, just a project to piddle with and add to my collection.
If there is a good tutorial or some-such online somewhere, please point me in the right direction.
Thank you very much!
