I just purchased the infamous Dirty Harry revolver, Smith & Wesson Model 29 .44 Magnum with blue finish. I'm fairly new to using firearms, and was wondering if anyone had any suggestions as to what I should use to keep it clean on the outside. I use Hoppe's 9 solvent for cleaning its insides, but since the blue finish likes to display fingerprints, how can I keep it looking new? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
