Gun restoration, 1882 British Bulldog Revolver, found in the ground | Restoration of antique

lay in the ground for 140 years

[@michaelnolan6054]

British gun "restoration." Step 1- Make sure it doesn't work.

[@VikingPreparedness]

I quit watching at “deactivation”

[@beargillium2369]

😂 after removing that much material there's no way it's going to be safe to shoot again... Maybe if it was a 32 and everything got resleeved to be a 22... Those things weren't super hardy in the first place and made for black powder only

[@albrown1812]

I think this one was a little to far gone.Doesn't fire and still rust in the barrel what's the point, beautiful wood handle tho!

[@robertbullcarmichael9856]

That is a mighty good restore right there. Awesome job and thank you for sharing.

[@tonnimontana5378]

Я не сторонник такого оружия. Оружие должно быть только для добычи пропитания. Но тут мне непонятно одно. Зачем восстанавливать такую старинную вещь, которая в итоге будет не рабочей? В чем смысл? Ведь даже не проверить, работал бы он или нет? Почему не после, почему перед восстановлением деактивировали этот раритет.

[@philsparks4125]

I never thought it would end up looking that great.. Great Job.....

Not blued ? Very nice job though. I’d like to have seen the grips sanded a touch post staining too.

came out looking really nice. no way that thing would ever be safe to fire of course, but beautiful anyway

I HAVE ONE THAT WILL SHOOT. SAME YEAR

[@user-tb5ns7hc5i]

I don’t understand the silly gloves. Lol. Ugly hands? Sub zero temps? Hand model? You can’t feel your work. Nice clean up, but you had to grind off so much metal, none of the tolerances would be useable any longer for it to ever function properly or safely. Display piece only. I wouldn’t call this a restoration. In a way, it had far more true character, patina, value, and interesting story as it was, rusted and original as found dug up.

Russian video

[@mapleloonie3888]

>Deactivates the hammer and buffer wheels the surface so its shiny and sends rust into microabrasions... Hey once it starts rusting and pitting at least its gonna be visible since the gun's sanded/polished from the bare and isn't blued or nickeled as you'd do to protect a surface once its been properly derusted and stabilised

[@sincompromisos1391]

Beautiful restoration. I wish I had that skill.

[@fungdart]

Actually I lied. I watched the whole video. Beautiful job. But if you can do all that restoration that gun could be made to fire it can be re-chambered and the boar can be re-rifled. And you could shoot lighter loads out of it. Even after all that work. I just hate to see a gun that can’t be fired. You might as well have a rock in your hand.

[@SuperDk32]

[@juleswins3]

Yes, why bother to do the rest? Now it’s a just a toy.😢

[@kingbertie]

As about a quarter of the structural integrity of the gun ended up on the floor as rust and iron filings, you'd have to be off your head to try and fire it.

beautiful resto!...he probably didn't want to have to register it as a firearm. I know he's in the US but in the UK the police would have more likely confiscated it and destroyed it.

[@zakartv]

I’m still lost at the hammer deactivation. Just fire some blanks with a string and test it out.

[@justinpettit8282]

I noticed how you didn't clean inside the barrel also it would have been nice to see you shoot the gun unless that "deactivation" earlier in the video made that impossible which I don't know why you would even refurbished the gun if you didn't plan on it being functional.

[@KrzysztofK1982]

The metal parts must be sprayed with paint immediately to stop the air getting to the metal. If it’s not sprayed within a few days all that shiny metal will be corroded. Rust cannot be cleaned off it must be blocked off.

@@markvegar1442 its not a real restoration, because it is not able to be used for anything other than a paperweight.

[@qualicumjack3906]

Yea I cringed when he deactivated it I wanted to see if it could still shoot

[@privateassman8839]

@@qualicumjack3906 Probably lost all of its value considering how much material was removed. If only the rust was removed, it could've been a museum piece. Now it just looks like some cheap trinket that was cast in sand. The grips didn't even fit properly, and the varnish had bubbles and debris, and wasn't sanded. A nice stain and some linseed oil would've been much nicer

[@qualicumjack3906]

@@privateassman8839 I agree with everything, especially the bit about linseed oil. Love linseed oil

[@privateassman8839]

@@qualicumjack3906 Truly a godsend. You can even use it to seal/treat wooden cookware (cutting boards/spatulas etc...) as long as it's either raw linseed oil, or actual boiled linseed oil (most storebought BLO contain drying agents that make them inedible), and metal, as it can help prevent rust propagation (although it's not as good as hot/cold bluing, or japanning). I recently scraped the varnish off of a small camp axe's handle and refinished it with BLO. Let me tell you; that thing is the softest, most comfortable, splinter free handle I have ever seen. Plus, it doesn't crack and peel like varnish, you don't have to wash any brushes or worry as much about fumes, and with repeated applications and sanding, can have just as nice of a gloss or matte finish as a varnish.
