Hi,
I inherited a 1917 or so .455 with bad corrosion both on the barrel and also along the sight near the hammer, however in removing that I've taken off the original blueing.
I'm a forum newbie, but this is a family heirloom so can anone give me advice on reblueing the gun myself - or is this a job for a pro? If I got a reblueing kit online and practiced on some scrap steel would i soon suss out how to start and stop the oxidization process?
I'm not in the States, so there's no point recommending your local S&W wizard to me.
Thanks for your time and wisdom.
