SamCoin Pillar of the Community United States 3237 Posts	Posted 04/18/2021 10:18 am I'm super suspicious of the whole "black beauty" designation in the first place. Id be interested to see hard evidence in the form of chemical analysis showing that the "black beauty" is even a real thing. Report this Post to the Staff

Numiscrat Valued Member United States 221 Posts	Posted 04/18/2021 10:45 pm I agree that it is not a black beauty, but gun oil would not do anything other than make it look wet or help collect dirt, the way cooking oil would. You are thinking about "bluing." Totally different, and much more involved process. Report this Post to the Staff
