    Below are pics of the before and after of my re-blue of the gun. Barrel was rusty and pitting has started. I dis-assembled and soaked the barrel in Evaporust for 8 hours. Then cleaned it up with steel wool. Cleaned it again to get ready for applying Perm Blue. After 6 applications of the Perma Blue I think that looks good. The pitting blued nicely and still gives it character. Next was the stock. After looking at it, I decided to just do a good cleaning and shine on it. I used Old English and Liquid Gold furniture/wood sprays and Im good with the final results.
