The corrosion-resistant properties of some types of stainless steel is affected by exposure to high heat. This would be expected on a stainless firearm that was burned in a hot fire and then left exposed to the elements. On another note, Ruger firearms are my absolute favorites. I have a Ruger GP100 .357 Magnum with a 6" barrel. It is without doubt my favorite pistol that I own.

[@TheKinzlerBros]

I haven't got the plating down yet but, I suppose it would work!

[@bullgravy6906]

Not for a working firearm, but an acquaintance of mine just used solder to fill in pits of an old gun, smoothed it out, then did a black cerakote over the metal. Looks pretty good and was an easy process, the gun was beyond financially reasonable to restore so he just made it look nice for some office art.

@@TheKinzlerBros Thanks for verifying what I thought the gun was. It looked the same as mine overall, especially in the closeups and the breakdown. The main difference is that mine has the 4" barrel and is blued. I bought it in the early 1970s when I was collecting past-due accounts for my employer. It's a great gun and fires as well today as it did when I first bought it. I watch a lot of your videos and have enjoyed them all. I know a lot about my "Security Six" and a few other guns, but am amazed at your in-depth knowledge about so many different guns, especially older foreign guns.
