Possibly all original 1903A3?

[garrettbragg12]

Yesterday I picked up a nice Remington 1903A3 (35197XX) for $650. With a beautiful bore, and cartouches, I figured I couldn't go wrong. Well after dismantling her, it seems I may have gotten a better deal than I thought! She was incredibly dirty and grimy. What should I do to clean up the little bit of surface rust? I'll see what you boys think:
