Rusting :-(

<< < (2/3) > >>

BC CHASER:
Have you ever thought about Dura Coat?

MagKarl:
If it were mine, I'd rust blue it.  I used this process on my muzzle loader and the finish is great, sort of a dull charcoal blue/grey color.  Very easy do it yourself process using LMF Browning solution and boiling distilled water.  Do a search for "rust blue".  LMF has rust bluing instructions too.  I've hunted a bunch in the rain and snow, and clean this gun with hot soapy water with zero rust. 

Rooster:
Thanks. Sounds like you guys use different methods than what I did. I bought this "Birchwood Casey" stuff. I dont know what the remover was called, it was for debluing and rust removing but I cant find that bottle at the moment. I also bought a bottle of "Birchwood Casey Super Blue" and a bottle of "Birch Casey PERMA Blue" dont know what the differences are. I just scrubbed it with one of the wirey dish brushes and that got some of the rust off, but it still dont look good. I think I might just take it to a gunsmith like somone said and have it cleaned, cause it was getting rust inside the chamber.

It was in the jailhouse evidence room because of an incident awhile back between my dad, the neighbor and myself. To make a long story short they both were drunk at the neighbors, and the neighbor pulled a gun on my dad. I kinda walked behind the neighbor and grabbed the gun and pushed him forward, and then jumped off the deck with his gun. He came up and grabbed me by the throat and my dad grabbed him and pounded the heck out of him. Wrestling went on for awhile, decided I needed to have the cops over so I ran home (RIGHT next door) to get the phone and my gun incase he had gone for his (Which was thrown in the bushes by me). I fired my gun on my property to break up the fight (cause my dad would of popped his eyes out of his head and smashed his face in lol) and my gun had to be taken as evidence until the whole trial was over. And if anyone is familiar with court procedings, you already know that trials get put off and off and off. So I had to wait about a year to get it back. Now, what makes me mad about that was that I wasnt a suspect, and my gun wasnt being held because of fear of endangerment or anything like that. I dont know WHY it had to be held, but it really makes me mad. Sorry so long.

I have to go talk with these people soon, you might consider Hydroprinting your gun at this point, after you re-blue it. At least if it didnt turn out the same color you wouldnt be able to see it under the camo.
