[QUOTE="25WSM, post: 1984060, member: 38048"] Just take it to a local gunsmith. Polish might get the bluing off but the metal under the bluing is going to look pitted. It takes sanding to get it smooth. Super easy on a lathe. If you are hell bent on doing it yourself get some 1 inch strips of 320 grit and do the shoe shine method. Only do what's visible in the ejection ports. You need to leave the rest of the body full diameter. Any light oil will keep the rust off. Shep [/QUOTE]
