Thanks, guys, so the logic is to soften it with oil then remove the rust as gently as possible? Should I put a drop of gun oil on the spec of rust and check on it periodically?
I'm wanting advice on what to do about the small spec of rust on this fine revolver (just above the trigger on the side plate)? My main concern is that if left untreated, it may spread or get deep. It was like this when I bought it.
Otherwise, it's in about 96-97% condition, has nice magnas...
