  If worse comes to worse, and you are not satisfied with the clean up job, I believe TAPCO carries new bolts, or good ones that you can pick up cheap. Where did you get your 91/30? I bought one through S.O.G., unissued, and it is cherry.

  0000 steel wool and some Liquid Wrench works good. If that doesn't work, take it over to your buffing wheel and polish it up ( if you have one ) I'd be lost without mine. If the rust is real bad, don't be afraid to use some real fine grit sandpaper on it. Just make sure when your done sanding, that you clean it real well so none of the grit gets into the bolt or the gun. Good luck!

  Blue Wonder will remove rust and not hurt anything else.

  Dicks Sporting goods carries a cloth kinda like the sylicone ones but its for rust. I used it on one of my guns and it worked well. I think it was made birchwood-casey
