    I have pulled the barrels off 6 new 12FVs and never used any heat to remove the nuts.

    Yeah, I have taken 3 12FV barrels off, one with a round nut, and they all came off quite easily.

    I have soaked the finish with oil on my 12FVs and later wipe down with a white cloth. I get a brown color on the cloth and it diminishes every time I do that.

    Something I always wanted to ask.

    Blued gun gets a bit of rust. If you put it in boiling water will it turn blue, a la the true rust blue?

    Only if you ad bluing salts to the water.

    I always rust blued by dipping in the salt tank, get a good layer of rust, card off and boil in distilled water.
