Enzo,
Put it in a ziploc bag and spray it with oil (WD-40 which has a solvent in it) until it is dripping wet making sure you get into all crevices. That should be enough without actually submerging it. The next day blast it with gunscrubber to blow out as much rust as possible and do it all over again if you think it needs it.
Use a good gun oil in the final process instead of WD-40, because as the solvents evaporate, it thickens.
