Hi all,
I have a 2013 blued steel Mini 14 (582). I was taking some photos of the new Ruger rail today and noticed some strange marks on my slide handle in the photos. It seems like it might be corrosion. I clean and oil my rifle regularly and apply oil to the exposed steel from time to time as I live about a mile from the Pacific Ocean in the San Francisco peninsula.
So, is this corrosion? If so, what can I do to deal with it and prevent further occurrences. I'm on the waiting list for a stainless steel Mini, but I'd like to keep this one in good shape.
Thanks,
T
