Was going through all my mags and noticed some rust on my metal ak mags. Any tips about how to attack this? I have a plan but I wanna know what YOU would do. Rust is not extreme in the slightest bit. Just some small patches here and there.

WD40 and some fine steel wool,, then wipe clean and keep them oiled

Yep, a light oil and the finest steel wool.

While steel wool will work you might be better off using brass wool.

 

Reason being if you don't get every single speck of steel wool out, you now left something that starts rusting very easy and will help speed up the rusting process.

been using WD and steel wool for years !! Just clean ,, And 1st rule of owning a AK is dont baby it , treat it like a **** ! And if it acts up hit it with a hammer

listen to Ted...

that's what i was planning to do but I needed reassurance. Thanks guys!!!
