    Can someone fix these?!

    Gday just discovered bad rust and very bad rust in 1 of my A5's and 2 barrels can anyone suggest where I could get this gone completely and reblued? And what it cost roughly?
    Cheers

    Personally if it's a working gun you intend to take waterfowling I would just rub the worse of the rust off with steel wool, put cold blue paste on the shinny buts and then give it a decent oil.

    Mate you should never leave them in a gun bag as the steel sweats inside the bag. I will send you a PM about the bluing work
