Old Rifle Restoration

[@richardsheckler8293]

Considering that this rifle was restored in a country where personal firearm ownership is forbidden, the work is truly remarkable. While watching the begionning of this clip, my first thought was, "why begin with such a horrible choice?" Then I realized that the restorer is NOT living in the USA where guns are readily available for cheap. For those of us living in the US, we should consider ourselves fortuneate indeed. Very nice job you did on this old relic.

[@vincentkreipe5776]

In my opinion it is some sort of mauser 98 action heavily modified and converted to a bolt action single shot shotgun. Former had has a flag safty and still got the third locking lug right in front of the bolt handle . The cut out in the front of the receiver has been done for weakening, so the gun can not handle the higher pressures of a rife cartridge any longer. By that also one of the former two locking lugs at the front of the bolt was cut. In the back of the receiver there is an other cut out, so the gun can't take stripper clips any longer as well. Magazine box and floorplate has been removed, as well as the long extractor. Also the gas shield of the bolt sleeve has cut off/grind of and the front of the reciever might milled to smaller diameter. The barrel seem to me like the original stepped barrel with increased bore diameter.

i had a winchester model 41, .410 bore when i was a kid. killed a battleship full of squirrels with it. pretty close in design to this one. only smoothbore shotgun i have seen that had factory rifle sights. it was cracked about the same way at the ejection side of the bolt. wondered what caliber/bore/manufacture this was, your estimation seems as reasonable as any, to me.

[@sionsoschwalts2762]

Mod 98's don't have a split reciever bridge. The bottom of the reciever looked like a 92/93. The cut out was probably so the extractor could reach over the rim when locked up,I have seen similar in an old Mannlicher action.

[@vincentkreipe5776]

@@sionsoschwalts2762 like - other comments sayed - the action is a (modified) 1893 ottoman mauser. You might be right, that the cut out at the side of the reciever let the extractor jump over the rim of a shotshell.

[@richardeverett7124]

Look into rust bluing. It converts the old red rust an gives a better finish that can be done at home. Its labor intensive but you will be happy with the results. If your stocks have dings don't try to sand the marks out . It's a old gun it's supposed to have character. Cleaning old stocks with just fine 000 or 0000 steel wool an mineral spirits will give nice results. Us a wood wax on the stock an all metal parts on the outside of the piece will conserve it. Grease an oil everything on the inside. Take your time an have fun. I found old tools is a good place to practice.

[@MeatGawds]

Damn. That whole varnish system is off the charts.

[@kellymcgee8456]

It looks very good for a "wall hanger" friend. I might recommend removing the firing pin when reassembling. It looks like about a 20 gauge shotgun. 0000 steel wool would knock some of the sheen off the stock and give it worn character. Thank you!

[@jacobparker9606]

Cold blueing, screw making, and gunsmith work seems awesome. I can’t help but think that 5 layers of tung oil and 00 steel wool over the wood finish you had would have taken away the brush marks. Also, with your skills, you could have given it an awesome butt plate. Nice work. Your electrolysis machine doesn’t mess around.

Take some 0000 steel wool to the metal, but don't polish it too much or you'll remove all the patina. Mosin Nagant parts are readily available from different suppliers. You can even re-barrel them to another caliber if you wanted. If the wood is chipped, dented, cracked, etc. be careful with sanding the stock too much, unless you want to make it look factory new. If you want to keep the value of the gun, or any old gun, don't do what he did!

That stock coating was a nightmare. I'm sorry to leave such a comment, but you really need to learn what you are doing before more guns get destroyed. The metal should have been disassembled and then boiled before being carded. It shouldn't be wire brushed or sand papered. The bluing was still there and almost certainly didn't need redoing if it had been boiled first. Please watch Mark's videos before you work on another firearm!

I wouldn't fire that thing if I were you. Electrolysis can make a part brittle.

You need to re-temper every metal part (cook it for 2 hours at 200-250C).
