Based on your couple photos, the gun has some good things going for it. And it looks like it needs some work too. Mostly related to the barrel finish.
Thanks Brian! Doing as much research I can before I work on it. Bought a couple Frontier Pads to see if that will help get the dried up crud and rust on the barrels. Found Flanigin's article about refinishing the barrels, looks like some useful information.
