By failing to observe basic maintenance procedures that would have been obvious to a conscripted illiterate Chinese peasant, a buddy of mine (who shall remain nameless) has managed to let a pair of Norinco 30rd .223 AK magazines rust. He left them unprotected in a damp basement for about five years, yech! One has hundreds of little spots of rust evenly distributed over the whole mag body, the other one has more of a streaking pattern to it, with the feed lips and locking surfaces almost entirely covered. Is there any hope for these things, or should he just dump them and buy new ones? Fortunately he stored his guns more sensibly. What's the best way of removing the rust? I've got an old bottle of blueing solution I'm thinking about trying, but have forgotten how to use it. Any advice?
