Re: Need help restoring an old gun
A simple search with the model name and number will get you places with parts, as for bluing the gun, if you want to keep its calue as an airloom or prestige of old gun, stay away from it, keep it as original as possible, if you plan on making a range gun of it, and dont mind the loss of value, then go ahead and blue.
There are many bluing agents out there, even parkerizing and paints, its just a matter of looking them up.
I did a .357 Lever lately, only because the person before me took steel wool and sand paper to it, mind you i paind $150 for it and it is one of my regular range guns. Took me one evening, and was fairly easy.
