paint removal

Sand paper. Or, by using a Dremel with a sanding attachment. The Dremel will be a whole lot easier than just doing it by hand. But to get in the sight rail, you'll need to use sand paper by hand, and fold it to get in there.

You can also use paint remover (just remembered). There is 1 kind that works well from what I've heard. At the current moment I can't think of the name though... Search, and maybe you'll find the brand.

Edit: It's JASCO that's supposedly good. You can find it at Home-Depot (also from what I hear). I highly suggest you use this over slaving over your gun w/ sand paper.

^^No, I don't think it would rust the recievers. As long as you take out the nuts on the right reciever, then you should be good (so water doesn't sit behind them). You probably rinse the recievers in water after you're done anyway. I'm not 100% sure though, as I have never used the stuff.

how do i take out the nuts

When I painted my gun I didn't even remove the paint. I just roughed up the old paintjob with sandpaper and painted a few coats over it.

or you could use a sandblaster, thats what i did.

I used a chemical paint remover called Zip-Strip to remove the paint from my receivers.  It works very well.  

I think you can use Steel Wool aswell.

Maybe. But it would take days. Literally. The outside paint is very hard. Sand Paper> Steel Wool for getting the paint off the recievers. Now Steel Wool> Sand Paper for polishing your internals.

it isnt 200 dollars to get something sandblasted if your like me and already have 1
