Great videos. Have you ever come across a Beretta 687 that does not need inertia to allow the second trigger pull. I have one and have always wondered if it has been modified before my purchase.

Hi, interesting job, what’s the process if there’s a palm swell or does that make it a non starter for conversion?
@devongunsmith4698Күн бұрын
I would carve away the palm swell and re-chequer it to make it appear/behave like a neutral handgrip👍

Greetings from the US, Thank you for posting all the very useful and educational videos about gunsmithing. I have watched the majority of your videos and I noticed that often you use few drops of oil (boiled linseed oil, Tung oil?) to condition gun stocks. I have a question related to maintaining gun stocks: which oil do you recommend to use on new gun stocks to make the wood last longer? Thank you.
