Unveiling
The bobcat barrel will be unveiled in about an hour after soaking in a capped PVC pipe full of Evapo-Rust since yesterday. Please stay tuned.
BEFORE AFTER BEFORE AFTER BEFORE AFTER I really need to get a bore light. The blue didn't come off the way I had hoped, but I can deal with that. There is no longer ANY rust inside or outside of the barrel. I just got finished hitting the barrel with one 0 steel wool and it looks GOOD. I know it's hard to tell but you're looking at bare steel, no blue. In reality it is a silver steel color. |
I will be checking back. I hope it turns out well.

A little better lighting.
The blue actually did come off. It only took a light buffing with one 0 steel wool to remove the discoloration from the barrel. Now I can either re-blue it or leave it bare. Bare is looking pretty good but I'm sure I'll blue it. |
Don't for get Browning it is one of the better options and more original.

But I don't like the looks of browning.
|
HEY pluck! I like it in the white.Looks nice.How long did you soak that thing in the Evaporust?
|
I let it soak for about 20 hours. I really like it bare metal too, but I'm affraid the barrel will rust too easilly without gun blue on it. I don't know why, it shouldn't be any different than the inside, or bore, of the barrel. I have to admit, I like blueing barrels. I really like the way a darkly blued barrel looks. I just went out and bought a new bottle of gun blue, I used up almost all of the other bottle. I'll be blueing the barrel today and I'll post some photographs afterwards.

Looks pretty darn good in the white. I think I would hit it with some good quality automotive wax to protect it and leave it as is.
|
All I need now is a ram rod.
