hot bath bluing

Do you plug the barrel bore when rust bluing?
No. It’s hasn’t seemed to affect anything. It goes into boiling water for the oxide change, then flash dries as soon as it’s removed. Run a couple patches down it to remove a slight discoloration. Some plug them, but i have concerns that internal condensation might turn to actual rust.
