In the rare case in my prior post the once nice smith was caught with the entire gun completly covered with very thin rust or like a froth. The blue was 100% ruined but it was caught without pits. I agreed with my buddys in that rare condition that to reblue was the only sane course. Usualy I am death on refinishing myself. It looked like a dugup relic but looked new when finished. It wasnt worn from wear and had no real history except for looking like it accidently fell into a bucket of acid!
