archiebald Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 Hi I would be interested to know if I removed the side plates on a shotgun and then removed the blueing and polished them up shiny would these rust? I expect they would so maybe it's a daft question but it would look great. Any info would be great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harnser Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 (edited) They would only rust if they were left without some protection . A little oil on them when stored would stop them corroding . I have a silver action sidelock ,no problems . Wipe over with an oily rag before putting away ,no sign of rust .

archiebald Posted January 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 Thanks for that, I'm careful wiping my guns over before putting away so hopefully should be ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
