I think I’m done. My nephew’s birthday is next week and its going to him. I think he’ll like it.
After the soak it was time to pop the sideplate. It was gunky but not as bad as I expected.
Then the rear sight. To everyone who said to just buy the whole assembly: YOU WERE RIGHT. Of course I didn’t listen, and was forced to perform micro-surgery on it. Never again. But its done.
Last was a rubdown with a purple pad then a gray one. All the scratches and almost all of the pits disappeared.
I think it looks ok. My nephew prefers Pachmayrs so that’s what I went with.
