[QUOTE="BuckWild, post: 5556166, member: 217"] Simple electrolysis tank to remove the rust then a DIY cold bluing kit. I restore cast iron cookware with an electrolysis tank and it will take it to bare metal in a short time. Pretty simple to set up. You can google and find lots of info. Been doing it for almost 20 years. If I still lived in Memphis, I'd do it for you. I restored an old Winchester .22 rifle when I was 15 years old and did a home bluing job on it. That was 50 years ago and that rifle still has 90% of the bluing and has killed a ton of squirrels since. If you know the model number, you can probably find replacement grips. The originals were probably made from wood. They could always be manufactured by a semi skilled woodworker. I recently made a set of walnut grips for a friend to replace his cracked plastic grips. May not be totally functional, but would make a great display piece for a small investment. [/QUOTE]
