Original TT33s don't have a safety. So you bought a new import and buried it in the garden for a week 😂 That's also the wrong way to remove a circlip It just pops off if you push on the split end. You also just completely fucked the firing pin retention by messing with that roll pin for no reason. Im also rather concerned that you just buffed the sharp edges off the locking fingers on the barrel so now you have poor lock up and a weapon with horrendous sloppy head spacing that could genuinely suffer case head seperation and spit brass at you upon firing.

[@user-sq4cj2pc4h]

Хорошая реставрация. Есть ряд решений, который вызывают вопросы - 1) не использовалась химия для снятия ржавчины. 2) механические нагрузки на детали при разборе, что заведомо ведет к рискам деформации и повреждению деталей. 3. применение тяжелых инструментов при разборке и сборке - клещи, металлический шток (комментатор ниже писал об этом).

[@johnroberts6695]

These gun restorations are fascinating, but I'm curious about the barrels. Does firing the gun _after_ the restoration help clean the rifling of rust?

[@deucedeuce1572]

Good question. I wish someone answered. I have worked on guns my whole life and don't know this. Any time I've seen a barrel with rust it was bad enough that it needed replacing or destruction. Never had the opportunity to restore a rusted bore. I would expect firing the gun to remove the rust, because of the nature of rust and how it flakes off. I'm sure If it's strong rust though, it could cause severe leading of the barrel though. I've seen bores that had a lot of very minor pitting and the leaded up really bad... so I assume rust would do the same... although with pitting, the holes can be filled in by copper and other fowling to make it shoot like a good barrel without leading up. That is why sometimes it is a bad idea to clean an old barrel too well. You can remove the metals that fill in the dents and pits and that can lead to problems.

[@adamklasa7270]

​@@deucedeuce1572 It is dangerous to fire a rusted barrel, trust me.

[@bullgravy6906]

It takes a particularly old gun to rust out a bore into uselessness. Now if you restore a lot of old guns you may see it quite a bit. Most guns with a chrome bore will outlast the owner and the elements by a considerable amount of time, additionally most bores have less exposure to elements as almost no one is foolish enough to store a gun with the bore down. Unfortunately, the uniformity of rust on this gun is indicative of artificial rusting so I’m quite certain the bore is not needing much care or restoration.

[@rabbiinqilababidawakhana9309]

wah mubarak ho bi mashallah video uplod ki😊

[@jschleicher]

Amazing gun! It rusted evenly inside and out with no pitting or scaling. And not one small part rotted away or was broken. Russians are using some pretty special steel for sure.

[@KavkazKislovodsk]

I's not soviet/russian and is not 1930. It is Polish postwar production. Probably mid 1950's. The barrel is ruined. There is no reason to "restore" it.

All those "years of rust" no pitting..nothing in the metal. How long did you really let it soak?

[@kaptainkooleio]

Biggest indicator for me was right at the beginning when the magazine was as rusted as the outside surface. It’s not open to elements so the rust shouldn’t be uniform inside and outside the gun. Plus the grips are both evenly degraded. If the gun was just lying around collecting rust, one side of the grips should demonstrate more extreme degradation due to exposure vs the side lying flat on a surface.
