[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Chamber Rust

Hello I have a less than a month old unfired Romanian AK-47 Underfolder and I have noticed that the chamber has some rust in it. I am wondering what I can do to stop this from happening? Should I worry about the barrel? Any tips would be great.

rust in chamber? must be a US barrel with no chrome lining. remove rust and put a light coat of oil in it.

Buy a bronze chamber brush from Brownell's. They sell a 7.62x39 brush just for the AK.
Use oil and the stiff bristled chamber brush to scrub the chamber, then keep a coat of lube in it until you're ready to shoot, then wipe all oil out.

As above, you possibly have a non-chrome lined barrel if it's rusting.
