If it's just surface rust a good quality paste wax like Johnsons has worked well for me. Just keep applying it and wipe off. The good thing about paste wax is that it isn't abrasive and won't harm the blueing. There are more aggressive procedures that can be used if necessary but I'd recommend you try this first.

I have used "Breakfree" and "0000" fine steel wool many times to remove light rust from blueing, and other metal fittings, when I don't want to damage the paint/ finish. It is how I remove rust from field gear, etc. I saturate a small piece of steel wool with the Breakfree. Don't let it come into contact with any cloth/ fabric though.Willi
Preußens Gloria!
