Guest cookiemonsterandmerlin Posted March 5, 2012 Report Share Posted March 5, 2012 More likly to be blood damage blood is the worst corriosive for blueing removal. Or is it over the whole barrels. ATB Cookie 1 Quote Link to post
patterdalejoel 669 Posted March 5, 2012 Report Share Posted March 5, 2012 wouldnt think crop spray would be to corrosive, i know it needs to kill pests, but if it can burn barrel paint... your not going to have any crops left.... Quote Link to post
Tayto 52 Posted March 5, 2012 Report Share Posted March 5, 2012 It happens when you put it away after getting it wet,without drying or cleaning it. Quote Link to post

The Duncan 802 Posted March 5, 2012 Report Share Posted March 5, 2012 Sounds like blood splatter then. Not good on any bluing and rusts really rapidly. Quote Link to post

Over the day the blood dries and when he get home and oils the gun the blood wipes off causing it to remove the bluing ATB Cookie Edited March 5, 2012 by cookiemonsterandmerlin Quote Link to post
