All you are doing is taking the bluing off the bolt carrier.  If you don't keep it oiled it will rust.  You could KG gunkote in silver or brushed stainless.

wouldn't it be easier to just buy a new on in crome, that way you wouldn't have to worry about it rusting after you took the bluing off?

There are none in chrome that I know of, just Chinese ones that are in the white.  No bluing.  I have two of them.  You could always send a carrier off to be hard chromed.

Speaking of which, where would someone actually do that?
