I am wanting to clean up some actions. I am not wanting to make them perfect or "ready to blue" I just want to cut down on the time a gunsmith will have to charge me to get them looking better. Mostly I want to remove the old bluing and any surface rust that may have started. Any way I looked through some old posts and have found MSC Industrial supply. Now what do I do? What brand, size and grit do I need? What do I do when they arrive? Thanks for any info, hints and opinions. Wes | ||

I just bought "Scale Removal" stones from Mcmaster 6x1/2x1/4 - 220,320,400,600. They were $3-4 ea. MSC is a good source too. Rich | |||

ElCab For what you are wanting to do, take em to a local place that has a blasting cabinet. You can either use beads or aluminum oxide. | |||

Jack Belk recommended the "EDM" stones from MRC in the tutorial someone mentioned above. They are hard as woodpecker lips and really maintain their flatness. | |||

Wes I like the moldmaker stones in 1/4 X 1/2 X 6". MSC should sell them as well as J&L and Gesswein. | |||
