Wanna see something shameful

[Belt Fed]

I won't disclose where i got this thing but it's toast, cylinder is rusted shut, so is the hammer.

Now for the bad part, it's loaded. i sprayed it down with PB blaster for now. my main concern is getting the cylinder out and unload it. any ideas what to soak it in. the gun is badly pitted from the rust. what a shame.

Soak it in motor oil after you take the grips off???

There's a gun only a fire could love ....

That's what i thought about doing, the grips are off already. but i didn't know if anything else would free it up better.

Maybe try applying OSPHO very carefully.

There is a Youtuber who specializes in restoring guns like this

Dang, an old Armorer i knew used to use Marvel Mystery oil for rusted firearms and other things, saw it free up a complete frozen WWII Etool.

As an aside the best mechanic I ever knew worked at a used car lot with me and every used car that came in he ran Marvel thru the engine, smoked like he'll but it really put pep back in them.

Put it back where you got it, and walk away.

It’s not toast. You can fix it.

EvapoRust .... I'd soak it 48 hours

That's not really that bad, I've seen worse that were restored
Any parts needed would be readily available

What’s the point of your guns going missing in a boating accident and some goober with a magnet goes fishing? That didn’t come out of Boggy Creek by any chance?
