Do you remember these and or have used them??

No on the sight but a Copper Chore Boy found in the cleaning isle of your local grocery store works great for removing rust w/o removing bluing.
On a side note, the ATF labelled the Chore Boy a silencer so be careful if you already own silences or have metal pipe stored in your garage.

I've never seen those products advertised. They must be pre-1967.

No I haven't but I remember Uncle Mikes when they use to offer black powder products. I used their nipples back in the 70s that fit my Second Generation Colt and my Pietta 58 Remington 'Target' model. I still have one of their muzzleloader rifle slings. They made great stuff.

I have seen a product similar to the top one for sale on Ebay when I search "black powder" in sporting goods/hunting.

If I run across it again, I will post a link.

I remember seeing the FDL Wondersight in some old gun magazines from the '50s. Thanks for the stroll down Memory Lane!

Wondersight was still around in the mid 70s.

The Big45 looks like stainless steel wool.

I remember that! My Dad had a copy of the Herter's catalog but he used it primarily for fishing gear.
