Bought this 10mm off gb. Found a bunch of rust after I received it. Sanded it down then bead blasted it. Not perfect but much better.

Appreciate it. Took a bit longer than I anticipated. Probably need to replace the springs in my elbow and shoulder now.

Think I would have a nice cerakote silver finish applied to protect it from future issues. Definitely night day from when you received it.

Well done. A shame it had any to begin with.

Great restoration.

How did it rust? Aren’t these stainless steel?

This was a gb purchase that yielded that nice surprise. I could only speculate.
