Hope I am posting in the right place.
My father in law pulled out a Colt .38 Army Special from his safe, he had it stored in what looked to be a furry sheep skin holster. Looking up the serial number is over 100 years old..
Due to the way it was stored I am sure the whole thing is covered in a very light rust. He asked to research cleaning the thing up and give it a try if I felt comfortable.
Is this something I can try myself?
Random Google image of what it looks like so you can get the style of gun:
