I picked up an 1895g this afternoon. Serial of 95 dates it to 2005 I think? Doesn't look to have been shot much, but wasn't put away clean by the precious owner. Has some slight spots of surface rust starting that I need to clean up. Pics to follow. Got a good price on it due to condition.

Welcome to the Guide Gun club! A little cleanup is no issue. Buy em right and shoot them often is my motto. Enjoy.

All cleaned up and took a few pics. I really like the wood on this one, very nice. One thing I found concerning, was that the rust spots I noticed when looking at the rifle in the first place, "disappeared" with indoor light. Obviously noticeable in the sunlight and invisible inside. I'm going to have to take everything i own outside in the near future and make sure I don't have any issues developing I'm not aware of.

Congrats on that rescue! It's a gorgeous rifle, and yes, sunlight is the best light to look at your firearms under, that's where all the gorey details come out! 0000 steel wool should take it all off or close enough!
