    Re-blueing the old girls

    Ive got an old P14 and a BSA Martini that I'm having rust issues with. Ive got a generous coat of oil on that holds it bay but looking for a more permanent option.

    I will be lining the gun room with gib and running a vent from the house (so I get the dry HRV air), but wondering if re-blueing is an option.

    I dont know stuff all about the subject, is it cheap enough to get done? or is there a simple enough DIY kit?


    Also while I'm here, the Martini is chambered in 5.6x52R, I think thats also .22 high power or .22 savage (feel free to correct me) but thats about where my knowledge stops. Its a take down gun-theres a thumb screw on the right side that unwinds to "un-clamp" the barrel thread then the barrel and fore-wood unscrew.

    Anybody know anything about guns of that sort? Just after a bit of info as it was my grandfathers rifle and I dont know sweet stuff all about it
