I have found one or the other or both at many retail locations (Walmart, Cabellas, Gander Mountain, Sportsmans Warehouse....) and both are readily available online from a gazzillion websites. Oh, the search is disabled until some sort of indexing gets done so you don't have to apologize for the question. In fact, you really never hve to apologize for asking questions here. There is such a large number of new forum members that the fields get replowed on a regular basis. Welcome.

JB is available at most good gun shops...Flitz is sold at Pep Boys and other auto stores.

I've seen Flitz at several different grocery stores in the section with other metal polishes and cleaning stuff. Have also seen Simichrome and Maas there, any one of em will work fine. I've seen Simichrome in a lot of Sporting Goods stores in the tackle department, it's used for polishing spinner blades.  JB is a Brownell's product, comes as JB non-embedding bore cleaning compound or a finer product called Bore Bright.

Check out your nearest ACE Hardware, that's where I got my Flitz.

Mother's Chrome Polish works too.  Some UMSC guys told me about using Brasso on older frosted barrels.  It worked great on my 03A3.
