If I get it, I guess that's the way to go. Shoot, shoot, shoot

I have a blue VH 28 gauge and a blue Remington 30" 16 gauge VHE. I am a little weak to hunt it off, but a younger guy in better shape could do the job. They are two wonderful hunting guns that will probably never see the chemical treatment.

Naval Jelly will remove the bluing, very quickly! Whatever chemical is used, it will leave the metal with a dull appearance, even if it was polished prior to bluing.

Mark is right about the Naval Jelly treatment.

toilet bowl cleaner works too. The surface will be dull and mottled not shiney. I have seen a couple of blued Parkers and I don't think they look bad, just not original.

For those of you who might want to practice on another blued Parker:

The barrels have that plum colored Winchester 21 look.
