Here is our latest restoration of a Ruger .357 magnum FBI commemorative model. It was involved in a house fire along with alot of other firearms. So this is a fire damaged firearm that was subjected to intense heat. Believe me when I say that test firing was a little scary but fun as well. Hope you enjoy the video and consider SUBSCRIBING for more restorations.

Hi boys, As a Ruger fan I must say it does my heart good to see this revolver get a second chance. One of your best jobs. I hope this one is a keeper for you. Best to you.
Thank you very much George, ya we plan on keeping it! Thanks for watching we appreciate it!
Great restoration, despite the pitting, it's still a nice solid revolver.
Thank you very much, yes it is. Thanks for watching!
Seeing that big "Eastwood" label in the background made me think you should be restoring a .44 Magnum LOL.
Haha, right! Thanks for watching we appreciate it!
I might be picking up a 29-2 that went through a house fire, it’s $150 so I’m guessing the seller either knows it’s toast or just can’t get rid of it because it’s ugly but salvageable. And that’s why I’m here haha
Might not win a beauty contest but it will make a great shooter,, Great Job.
Right, for sure! Thanks for watching
After it got all shined up but with the pitting it reminded me of the old toy cowboy pop gun toys we had as kids which was quite the unexpected bonusLOL Beautiful work as always👍🏻
Thank you very much, that's cool. Thanks for watching!
The corrosion-resistant properties of some types of stainless steel is affected by exposure to high heat. This would be expected on a stainless firearm that was burned in a hot fire and then left exposed to the elements.
On another note, Ruger firearms are my absolute favorites. I have a Ruger GP100 .357 Magnum with a 6" barrel. It is without doubt my favorite pistol that I own.
Absolutely, thats awesome! Nice gun, thanks for watching
Greetings from Australia, where owning a pistol is unattainable, unless you are a criminal and them you can have as many as you want!
Welcome, ya that sucks and the criminals will get them! Thanks for watching
Another superb recovery of a damaged firearm , always difficult to know if the metal has been weakened by the heat from the fire , nice shooting too !
Thanks Pete, ya it is hard to tell. Thanks for watching we appreciate it!
You brought her back to
life...looks great, thanks!😊
I did, thank you very much, thanks for watching!
@@TheKinzlerBros you are most welcome!
I love that you dont use music. Thats the best part man. These videos are perfection.
Thank you for the kind words and thanks for watching!
Regarding firearms, I am self-taught for the most part, but I did work for a gunsmith for a while, and learned quite a bit. By this I mean you guys really do amazing work, Each subsequent video, shows your level of skills, and passion. I look forward to the next one.
Us too, thank you very much we appreciate it! Thanks for watching!
Amazing restoration! the pitting even gives it a little unique style! keep up the amazing work!
Thank you, yes it does! Thanks for watching!
The harder stainless alloys have less nickle content and are more prone to heat and environmental damage. Cool video, liked it much!
Ya it has a lot of pitting, thanks for the info and for watching
I am a true Ruger fan with many Ruger firearms. Nice to see a second life for this gun... Thumbs Up!
Very cool. They are iconic guns! Thanks and thank you for watching!
I can honestly say that I never get tired of watching these restorations as always love from London England Marcus.
We appreciate you buddy!
Alain Delon wear it in a great action movie from the earlier ninetees...You delivered very good work! Ludwig
Very cool, thanks we appreciate it! Thanks for watching
Trabalho excelente.
Thank you very much!
Fantastic restoration of the pistol 🔫. Have a great day my friend ❤️🙂⚘️.
Thank you very much Donna, you too!
Awesome restoration !!!!!!!!! Those Ruger revolvers are built like tanks. I have three Ruger revolvers.
Thank you, yes they are! Thanks for watching!
I have bought gun parts for these guys some of the best customer service you'll ever get
Ya they were very nice, thanks for watching!
GREAT Restoration. .
Thank you we appreciate it!
Another resurrection performed. Your the best Brandon. Good to see you again. Hello to Austin for me. See you on the next! 🙂👍🇺🇸.
Thanks! You too Martin
Great job ! The pitting almost looks like engraving.
I’ve seen safes opened after fires and it’s just like everything was baked like an oven !
Ya it does, that's crazy! Thanks for watching
Excellent piece of work
Thank you we appreciate it!
My favorite firearm to shoot is my Ruger GP 161 stainless .357. They're such solid pieces that I wasn't surprised your revolver handled all the loads you put through it. They are definitely designed and (over) built to give generations of usage. Great work!
Absolutely, they are beasts! Thanks for watching!
Nice.
Thanks!
Great restoration work!
Thank you very much! Thanks for watching!
Absolutely best restoration Channel thank you guys for no fake videos
Thank you very much we appreciate it a lot. Thanks for the support!
I'm from Brazil, I liked the video
Welcome, thanks we appreciate it!
Objects like old and forgotten weapons turn up all over the place, people with certain skills can bring them back to life, after they've been inspected, and field tested.
Yes they do, thank you very much for watching!
As always very nice work. I'm a big Ruger fan.
Ya they make quality guns, thanks and thanks for watching!
From a distance all that pitting looks like fancy engraving!
Ya it kind of does, thanks for watching!
Fantastic, I’m so amazed, thanks 😊
Thank you we appreciate it, thanks for watching!
Nice job Sr!
Thanks!
Excellent resto on this hand cannon!
Thanks Wayne we appreciate it!
Great job Brandon.
Thanks Joseph!
I had one ..beautiful gun and I won many competitions with it.
That's awesome, thanks for watching we appreciate it!
Nicely done! That bead blaster is a must have tool!
I think .38Spl. and string to start would have my first test fire. But stainless IS tough steel!😊
Thanks, yes it is! Ya probably and it absolutely is. Thanks for watching!
I was thinking the same about the .38
Amazing. I look forward to the next restoration
Thanks! You and me both!
Awesome restoration !!
Thank you very much!
Maybe some scroll work to cover the some of the pitting
That would work, thanks for watching!
Do you have any techniques to asses the structural integrity of the frame/barrel/cylinder or test of the heat treat has been compromised by the fire?
I don't but, I'm sure there are some methods. I just go by what I can see and test it in a vise, thanks for watching!
Thank you for this video. I love to see old guns, tools, motor vehicles, etc. brought back to life. BTW @ 8:31 - That's not the "FBI seal". That is the FBA National Academy seal, which is not the same seal as the FBI. The attendees of the FBI National Academy are not employees of the FBI, they are law enforcement officers from around the world who attend the National Academy hosted by the FBI.
Thanks! Thanks for the info that's very interesting. Thanks for watching!
@@TheKinzlerBros It's still very cool that you have a gun which has the FBI National Academy seal on it.
Great job, mister! Congrats! 👏👏👏👏
Thank you! 😃
I just picked up a security six. Mines a 38 special and in pretty mint condition. lol.
Nice, thanks for watching!
Love me some Ruger .357. Nice resto. It almost looks nickle plated.
Me too, it's possible but, when I looked it up it said stainless. Thanks for watching
Awesome videos!
Thanks we appreciate it!
I’m getting a house fire damaged SW 29-2 tomorrow. Been looking up and researching metallurgy and such, and despite what some have said it’s hard to imagine some 44spl cowboy loads wouldn’t work in it when it’s restored.
Ya be careful though, we don't shoot this anymore. Thanks for watching
Wow great job man on the gun! You never let the impossible stop you for doing your magic!! 😊
Thanks James you are very kind, thanks for watching buddy!
Another great restoration. Just talent and skill. 👍👍
Thank you very much we appreciate it! Thanks for watching!
Fire can be a big problem. It can completely mess up the hardened structure of the steel. It can even bend some parts if its hot enough.
Ya for sure, we were careful! Thanks for watching!
Excellent restoration job loved the test fire a real gutsy revolver great video thanks for this.
Thank you very much we appreciate it, thanks for watching!
Good video but personally I would have tried to get rid of some of the pitting.
Thanks, It was in a fire and it was pretty deep. Thanks for watching!
Good afternoon, you again please us with your sincere works, thank you, I wish you more subscribers, new interesting works and inspiration.
Thank you very much, we appreciate the support! Thanks for watching!
Nice work I would have went with a blued finish tho it would help offset the pitting but that's just what I would do
Ya I hear you, the original finish was what I did, thanks for watching!
@@TheKinzlerBros any time
ALMANYA 🔥 🔫
Thanks for watching
watching you reload it was the best part. never seen a man shake soo much lol.
Ya that's too much caffeine!
Personally I’d love it if you put a rain sound in the background for the whole video
Well I don’t disagree with you but if I did that than a bunch of people would be annoyed I’m sure.
Seeing the p38 looking like that made me want to hug mine.
Im sure, they are very valuable guns. Thanks for watching
@@TheKinzlerBros value aside they’re very well machined pieces! I’m definitely going to watch what you do to bring that toasted one back.
@williamaycock make sure it’s unloaded first
Very cool!
Thanks!
Wow that was awesome.
Thank you very much!
I was expecting you to put the OEM ruger grips with the rosewood insert on but those pachmeyrs look so much better
It was the best I could find at the time. Ya they look good, thanks for watching
Лайк,кто под пружину подкладывал гаечку😉
I put a couple washers in because there were tension problems, thanks for watching
The best
Thanks we appreciate it!
Cant wait for the P38
Ya us too, it's going to be awesome! Thanks for watching!
@@TheKinzlerBros Your welcome, your guys work is amazing and i can tell theres tons of effort put into it unlike some channels who simply just do a bit of cleaning and putting back together. Great vids and great channel!
Like this piece
Thanks we appreciate it!
Amazing 😍
Thank you very much!
Респект и уважуха!!
Thanks for watching
Very good job. How many degrees of heat would it be sufficient for steel to lose its hardness in a fire?
Thanks, I don't know the temperature. Any fire can affect the integrity of the steel. We don't shoot this anymore! Thanks for watching
It looks like a "Security Six" model with a 6" barrel.
It is but, its an FBI commemorative edition! Thanks for watching
@@TheKinzlerBros Thanks for verifying what I thought the gun was. It looked the same as mine overall, especially in the closeups and the breakdown. The main difference is that mine has the 4" barrel and is blued. I bought it in the early 1970s when I was collecting past-due accounts for my employer. It's a great gun and fires as well today as it did when I first bought it.
I watch a lot of your videos and have enjoyed them all. I know a lot about my "Security Six" and a few other guns, but am amazed at your in-depth knowledge about so many different guns, especially older foreign guns.
With that FBI logo this is a historical piece. Absolutely beautiful work on restoring it.
Absolutely, thank you very much we appreciate it. Thanks for watching!
The 357 phenix right there ;)
Ya it's awesome, thanks for watching!
Hey man glad to see your videos again as always you are a remarkable job restoring these yeah that is the first firearm I seen with the FBI on it the only thing I would have done different is putting the wood grips on it instead of rubber but my favorite is always the shooting that's when you know you've done your job keep up the good work
Ya me neither on the Markings. Thank you very much, ya that was all i could find at the time. Thanks for watching!
@@TheKinzlerBros no problem man keep up the good work I love seeing these pieces brought back to their Glory
I'm a Ruger enthusiast but that wheel gun wasn't worth the effort.
But I applaud the effort.
Cool, it was to me. Thanks for watching
Great work as always👍I really like your work 100% master in his field
Thank you very much for the kind words. We appreciate the support, thanks for watching!
Great work 👍🎯💪
Thanks Max!
Beautiful but man... I would scared that the metal got annealed during the fire. The fact you got that barrel off so easily tells me the metal expanded and then contracted at some point. You could look up the spec hardness ( Rockwell scale) of the barrel and frame from Ruger and then get some hardness files and do some tests on the barrel and frame to make sure they didn't lose their temper. I would not use this pistol unless you do that first. And then, I would probably only shoot .38 Special +P at most out of it. It's just too risky.
Thanks, ya all we did was test fire in a vise. We don't shoot it anymore! Thanks for watching and for the advice
great video
Thanks!
I would be a little concerned about the guns metallurgy after a fire.
Ya we were too, thanks for watching!
Nice work as always, considering what you had to start with.
I appreciate that. I mean it wasn't horrible but the gunsmiths I bought it from made me sign a waiver.
Totalmente excelente! Aguardando a próxima restauração, que certamente será igualmente incrível! ☺️👍⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Thank you very much Marcio we appreciate it as always!

Thanks for watching from Thailand
Boy that thing was crusty, good job
Absolutely, thanks!
have you ever tried copper plaiting it followed by polishing back to to metal to fill in the pits then nickel plating it no more pits..
I haven't got the plating down yet but, I suppose it would work!
Not for a working firearm, but an acquaintance of mine just used solder to fill in pits of an old gun, smoothed it out, then did a black cerakote over the metal. Looks pretty good and was an easy process, the gun was beyond financially reasonable to restore so he just made it look nice for some office art.
Love these video's. Makes me want to buy some guns to rebuild.
Ya it is very satisfying! Thanks for watching
At first glance when I saw the thumbnail I thought it was a S & W Model 29.
Ya they are similar, thanks for watching!
the pitting looked like engraving lol
Ya kinda, thanks for watching!
C O O L !!!!
Thanks!
Finally got some of that raid money lol
Well it all depends on the views. Thanks for watching we appreciate it!
Might as well fix the "timing" (how much aligned the chamber is to the barrel) while at it, since the cylinder is moving a bit. That's my main concern now. But all-in-all, you did an amazing job making the gun work again
Yes the indexing is a little ahead of itself. Considering i will never fire it again. Idk if i will make any adjustments. Thanks for watching.
Hello, i am wondering where can you get firearms like these legally for restoration?
Online auctions, estate sales, friends and gun shows for you! Thanks for watching
hi, what kind of acid do you use for rust? well thank you
It's not an acid but, its called evaporust. Thanks for watching
Usually when you test fire your gun restoration for the first time. What kind of loads do you begin with? From expected weak to hot? Or do you have your own way to test the strength of the guns?
Depending on the gun we try to usually use a weaker load!
anoter nice restore
great video and shooting ;)
Thanks Johnny!
I have a Ruger Security Six just like that one. If you want to sell i'd take it.
Cool, I don't plan on selling this right now. Sorry. Thanks for watching
ว้าว! ปืนสวยนะเนี่ย
Thank you, thanks for watching!
Great job on the Ruger. If you didn't know if the gun would be ok to fire. You should have fired a .38 instead of .357, less powerful, but will fire as good, without the magnum power.
Thank you very much we appreciate it! Ya it would've been safer. Thanks for watching!
“It’s perfect”
Thank you very much!
What are the bullets in for you to load the cylinder so easy.
Its a speed loader. They sell them at sporting good stores, thanks for watching
