My BDA 380 needs to have the feed ramp polished. I think the last box of hollow points scratched it up a little.
What do I need to polish the ramp, and where can I get some? I assume it takes hand work with some type of emory cloths in stages, but I haven't done it before.
Thanks in advance for advice.

Ricochet; If the pistol is feeding ammunition with zero malfunctions, I would let it alone. If you start polishing it, and removing metal, you will affect the feed that you already have. If I just want to buff the ramp up, I'll rub some Flitz polish on it with a few light strokes with an emery cloth, while still wet, but only to remove burrs.

Thanks. I just want to smooth it up a little. I can feel a couple of tiny burrs. I suspect it won't take much to polish through the blueing, should I worry about that?

The only ramps that I have with the bluing are the integral ramps that are part of the barrel , all others on the frame have been polished.

Yep, my BDA 380 feed ramp is part of the barrel.
