Care of black finish.

Coop57 · March 3, 2001, 07:24 PM

Most of my firearms are a stainless finish. I recently purchase a Ruger GP100 with a black finish. What products are best for this type of finish?
Thanks in advance.

Coop57, you'll get a myriad of answers on this one as most folks have a particular product that they prefer. I've found that a light coat of any good gun oil, Hoppe's for instance, will serve you well in protecting a blued finish from rust. George
