jimmyk Posted August 13, 2008 Report Share Posted August 13, 2008 Hi all, I bought a Baikal MP153 last week and am very chuffed with it - seems solidly built and comes into the shoulder nicely. The only downside is that the previous owner obviously wasn't a fan of regular cleaning - the gun looks like was put away wet a few times. I have stripped down and cleaned most of the internal workings but the barrel has a few small rust patches on the exterior - has anyone got any advice on the best way to remove them? Whilst they aren't serious in any way I have a nagging feeling that I should do something about it. Having searched the forum topics, opinion seems to be divided on the DIY blueing kits you can get - am I better off just trying to remove the rust with a bit of 00 grade wire wool and some 3 in 1? Thanks Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
straightshooter1 Posted August 13, 2008 Report Share Posted August 13, 2008 (edited) I agree firstly try 0000 wire wool soaked in gun oil ie loads of it then gently rub the barrel down but make sure you don't do it too much or you will remove the blueing if the rust is too far gone then it's time for re blueing I recommend Birchwood casey kit imho Edited August 13, 2008 by straightshooter1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
