This might be a stupid question, but I'm wondering what exactly bluing does for a rifle? Does it help prevent rust or ware to the metal? I'm asking because I have a Chinese SKS that I'm refinishing the wood on and I would like the metal parts to be a chrome color. Could I just strip the bluing off the barrell to it's original metal color or would that be doing more harm than good?
