Beautiful work as always!
Thanks again!
I have been admiring your work for years in NRA magazines....
I own one of those Ugly Purple VFD's you have on the Baldor....
best wishes from Florida, Paul
Excellent Video.....
Thanks Paul, I’m a small gun shop in Maine. I haven’t been in the NRA magazine. You are probably thinking of Turnbull Restoration in New York. They do great work but on a much larger scale. Same last name though. Thanks for watching. And I hope you will continue.
I have a 1920s vintage J P Sauer mauser , that has really nice black bluing, but it's lite in spots, I'm guessing it's rust blued if I'm not mistaken I think I can degrease lightly polish & card it & continue the rust bluing process, No ? also I'd prefer to leave the half octagon ribbed barrel on , any reason I can't do it assembled? I have some old barrels and frames I'm going to practice on first
It never hurts to try a partial blue as long as you are prepared to do a complete if it doesn't work out the way you wan't.
@Turnbullcustomguns hey I just watched a guy using an induction heater, I bet it could be used to bend a bolt & control the heat much better than a torch
