I had my desert eagle tucked away for a few months and i found a little patch of rust underneath on the heel of the grip. It wasnt to bad. I used a fine grit steel wool and some hoppes no 9 and worked at it slowly. Then applied liberal coats of oil onto it to help. I had great success and it is all gone with little trace of any remains. It has been a few months and no new occurences of rust have popped up. But I will be checking into it more closely from now on. I kind of wanted to get a cerakoted model but it is what it is. The cerakote would have worn anyways in spots as well. Has anyone ran into this issue? The used desert eagles i see in the gun stores always seem to have some rust on them if they are the plain black coating.
