So I've got a model 99 in 300 savage. Absolutely love this rifle. I inherited it from my father in law. Functions great and I really enjoy shooting it.
Although it functions well it looks like it wouldn't. Furniture is semi-ok, but I've found companies that sell NOS stuff and reproduction. If I decide not to refinish myself ill go that route.
The big issue is with the steel parts. Receiver, barrel, etc... Everything looks and feels like raw steel. No longer smooth and blued like other fresher examples I've seen.
So the question is... is there anyone around that can refinish these parts to their former glory? Would love to make this look like "new" again.
