Anyone here into firearms?

Tried it but it wouldn't break loose. But I was afraid to put too much torque on it. I'm going to wait until my buddy gets back and let him decide how much force to use. Until then, I'll squirt it with WD and bump it with the deadblow every few hours.

Everything else seems to be in good shape. A few quick strokes with a small brass brush gets most of the rust off of the bolt and pitting is minimal. All other parts just need a good cleaning. The bluing has seen better days but I haven't found any big pits in the steel.
