Restoration Pocket DOUBLE BARREL Gun

Hello! Today, the restoration of a french double-barreled pocket pistol. A sample of the mid-19th century. The condition is terrible, everything is rusty, the mechanisms do not work. But I will restore everything. This is an interesting project, but for a review. No functionality is required. The item is intended for a museum. I will remove the rust, fix the mechanisms and make a new handle. Let's go!
Firstly I put all the parts in a rust remover. The previous handle was most likely made of horn, but there was practically nothing left of it. After cleaning the metal parts, I washed everything and dried it. The remaining plaque was removed using a soft metal brush.
Next, I began to restore the barrel mechanism. (Apparently someone tried to brew everything roughly earlier, but it didn't work out). I removed the extra seams, sanded the parts, and removed the irregularities. Next, I prepared the surface of the future soldering sites and soldered everything with tin-lead solder. Everything is working fine.
The next mechanism is triggers. The condition is poor, rust and time have practically ruined a lot. I made two pairs of new springs because the old ones were broken.
The handle of the pocket pistol was made of dry beech wood. I covered it with stain and linseed oil. I applied some decor after assembly.
Furthermore, I did not do the test, because this ITEM IS INTENDED FOR VIEWING IN A MUSEUM.
Sincerely, Alex. Thanks for attention!
Good luck and health to everyone! With best wishes, Alex!

This channel is like a living fossil of KZbin's 2007 era where most channels were just straightforward videos of people doing stuff they loved doing. Nothing malicious, no malicious phone app plugs, no excessive hype, no diamond glitches. Just beautiful. PS - I was born near Rockford Illinois!

7:00 приём! как можно было допустить мысль, что мы не читаем титры?! Возмутительно😂 Спасибо за видео👍

А сколько ж времени ушло на тот узел?)))

It will always be the "most difficult challenge." Until you challenge yourself again. Then that's your next "most difficult challenge." Keep challenging yourself, my friend. It's how we grow. We're here to support your growth and are thankful you share it with us.

[@ScrewsAndTools]

Hello, yes! You are absolutely right. When it is difficult and difficult and does not work out, there is an increase in experience and knowledge. Thanks

[@johnoconnor4941]

Well worth just under 15 min of my attention. That was a great effort and loved that you had to suss stuff out. Maybe consider, and spend another five years on it, trying to carve out recesses for the original handle. If you don't have anything else on, that is.

[@user-cq7vs6ob3e]

Металл хорошо получилось восстановить. Даже механизм работает. Отличная работа! А вот про дерево говорить не стану, всё уже написали ранее.

[@user-jf7qp6eh3m]

С почином с огнестрелом. В правильных руках всё оживёт. Лайк. P.S. А титры читаем. Спасибо.😊

[@blanklystaring9270]

I recently found your channel, and you've now moved to restoring old guns, one of my favorite things to watch. I'm glad to have found your channel, and I think you did a good job with this gun!

[@res_dkt]

13:46.. We know very well that you are very tired of renewing these beautiful weapons.. but in the end you create a new achievement for yourself.. be proud of yourself. You are not just renewing the weapons.. you are renewing our love for you after every clip❤

[@HickSquatch]

Very nice piece! The folding triggers and engraving indicate a gentleman’s dueling pistol possibly, kept in a pocket until needed. Beautiful piece of history

[@bertoldgies724]

Good job, Alex. Very nice little pistol.

[@user-mc8eq7fm2z]

GREAT JOB , I LOVE IT YOU TAKE CARE MY FRIEND

[@razorboyXVII]

That was truly amazing, my friend! Beep! Beep! 👍

[@Nikogda_ne_sdavaisya]

Экзотика!!!!!! Отличная работа!!!!

[@davidmorris4353]

I have been restoring and repairing firearms for over 50 years, I don't believe I would have had the Moxie to tackle this one! GREAT JOB ALEX AS USUAL!

[@ScrewsAndTools]

Thanks for the feedback! This was my first restoration of such a weapon. To be honest, it was very difficult!

[@gerardopolvillo5999]

Hola buenas tarde bonito trabajo saludos

[@morrinsville23]

Brillant work as always Alex! Beep beep

[@SU37BOB]

Прием. Здравствуйте. Спасибо за титры. Би-бип! Как всегда отличная работа! Очень интересная вещица 🙂👍🏻. Всем здоровья.

[@ScrewsAndTools]

Благодарю!!

[@markfergerson2145]

Now you have graduated to gunsmithing. Granted that you didn’t try to restore it to full functionality (making or finding ammunition for it would be tricky and I would not want to fire it anyway) I still celebrate you deciding to restore its appearance and what functionality you could manage. Thank you nice again for sharing your struggle to learn and improve your skills, and showing us the tangible results of that struggle. Beep beep!

[@serendipityforge333]

Well done, sir!

[@scottwallace4864]

Very nice work.

[@Immortalaquarius]

For a first time restoration of a firearm, you did really well! Thank you for sharing this journey. I am happy your injury heals well. Looking forward to the next video.

[@Madlintelf]

Beautiful restoration, well done friend! As for the # 5 on the parts, they labeled them so parts could be replaced quickly and easily in the field. Things break, but they can be repaired and put back into action.

[@timbryan9701]

You are such a good craftsman and with such interesting projects. :)

[@tomswindler64]

Beautiful piece,it definitely needed your touch.love your attention to making the gun look like it was back in the day .great video as always.just keep doing what you do best.😎😎😎👍👍👍

[@ryanmedina5090]

Alex, you've leveled up to firearms. That looks like a tedious restorations but it looks fabulous as always. Great work.

[@ashencrumbs]

You did well with that one

[@user-vo5jv3gm5p]

[@armadagunshow]

Very nice job congrats

[@Alex27krsn]

Здравствуйте Алекс. С новым началом, с почином, так сказать вас. Непростая работа получилась. Спасибо за интересное видео. Кто скажет плохо пусть встанет рядом. И сделает так же😂

[@pauldockins9635]

That was an interesting case, all things considered very nice.

[@miloslavtomek-cp3fh]

Skvělá práce hezké video už se tesim na další 👍👍👍

[@RoninDosho]

That was a nice change to see you accomplish this work on a firearm. Bravo!

[@timtaylor8406]

When I was a little boy a long time ago I was given a Pirate's double barreled pistol which i thought was wonderful. It was blue enamel with a gold pistol grip. It fired caps and i played Pirates with my brother. But yours is the real thing. How amazing to restore this piece. Beautiful. Congratulations!

[@ScrewsAndTools]

Hello! Thanks for feedback ^_^

[@odalanus_863]

Nice work i'm french and happy to see you working on this 😊

[@user-xh9xg6oh6o]

Да ладно, прям, старик))) мужчина в самом расцвете сил!😊

[@jeromedangelo7028]

You did a superb job restoring this gun!

[@witchlive5579]

Цифра 5 это номер конкретно этого пистолета в восемнадцатом веке такие пистолеты делались в маленьких оружейных мастерских естественно без чёткой стандартизации и если у мастера заказ на 5 пистолетов то он метит все детали чтобы не перепутать при сборке .Металлическая часть у вас очень хороша а вот дерево тут не очень но конечно опыт дело тонкое.Не теряйте бодрости бип бип.

[@alex---alex]

Круто получилось, да и разнообразие 👍

[@darrenfox5883]

Well done! Especially considering how strange a weapon it was! I have seen a gun with folding triggers!

[@ericcartman9416]

Каждый раз поражаюсь, как легко откручивают болтовые соединения на таких старых вещах))

[@user-cc8vj2lt3e]

За дырявые перчатки отдельный ❤ ) сам в таких несколько ножей отковал и собрал а выкидывать перчаточки жалко😂

[@MrCrowski]

Wow, nice to see firearm restoration for the first time! Keep it up!

Man. What a piece of work ... clever job. Alex, thanks for all effort to make those videos. It's always a relief in my day to watch your work. Beep beep.

[@brandenjackson3552]

Beautifully done, Alex. I think that whoever you did this restoration for will be very pleased. It looks amazing.

[@ScrewsAndTools]

[@vinceianni4026]

Good job mister Screws beautiful restoration well done

[@OldGrayCzechWolf]

Very good work, especially new flat springs. Fortunately you picked a period piece before there was any real stadardization/mass production, that means all parts were unique and one of a kind. That means restoration can be made without worry about exact copying. Again good work.

[@ScrewsAndTools]

Thank you for feedback ^_^

[@alekseikovalenko3678]

Видео отличное слов нет , талант от бога востонавливать вещи и давать им вторую жизнь. Ну наконец в конце дождался фирменное БИБИП. Титры читаю и это прекрасно.

[@MASI_forging]

The restoration is beautiful and perfect 😃😃

[@arhiop3646]

Очень интересный экспонат. Думаю если бы вы сделали тест, это могло бы плохо кончится...ствол может разорвать. Музей, это правильно.

[@ScrewsAndTools]

Он уже свое отгулял, пусть теперь чистенькой стоит на полке

[@tonygrimes4125]

Very nice . Well done and best regards alex.😎🇬🇧

This was a fascinating change of pace. Enjoyed this a lot and a good end result.

[@williamlee8098]

You did well Alex you have came along way my friend

[@annettemalaski1967]

Lovely! I am glad you just loved it for what it was. That is quite the unique weapon. It looks designed for female tastes and sensibilities!

Меня возмутило только одно слово в этом видео: старик! Старик?! 🤨😲Да Вы ещё всем фору дадите!! Спасибо Вам за прекрасное видео и точные впечатления от просмотра каждой "серии сего сериала" 😊😅. С приветом из России

Порой так... ибо повзрослеть пришлось крайне рано :)

Beautiful job Alex, it will be a great addition to the museum!

[@jasoncampbell6222]

That certainly was a well earned "Beep beep", absolutely amazing restoration of that pistol, when you first showed it it looked like a .410 bore shot shell and when you finished I was convinced it was the same. Anyway thanks for sharing with us and best wishes from here in the UK.

[@ih8music]

I knew you could do it, Alex! Great job!

[@funnymoments6988]

Wow! and what have you not done yet! The result was wonderful. thanks❤

[@iand5057]

Very nice work Alex. I really enjoy watching you take on new projects. Keep up your good work, it is inspiring to me 👍

[@gerryhuntman]

Well done with this restoration! Impressive as usual.

[@samuelsiedschlag4486]

Very cool! Even if it never fires again, it's still a very sharp restoration.

[@jailsondasilva223]

Restaurada garrucha 🔫😉

[@joemorganeatmyshortschannel]

I dont think thats a pinfire it looks like an old black powder centerfire but its still pretty cool

[@user-vy1vd3rk6l]

Это шедеврально. Мастеру аплодисменты. Бип-бип)))))

[@user-hc5oq4wl6h]

Хорошая работа, Саша. Не без "чудес", но всё равно хорошая. Так ведь и не ошибается только тот, кто ничего не делает. В качестве экспоната, вполне себе пистолет. Реально видно как, что должно работать. Про рукоятку это отдельная песня. И её следует переделать. Понимаю, что устал, но надо))) Вот такая я язва)))

[@ScrewsAndTools]

Доброе утро. Даже не хочу вспоминать это... Две пружинки меня просто выжали. От и до! И я рад он на следующий день уже был в музее)) Уж лучше ножны для шашки сделать два раза!

[@andyc750]

communication check response, yes I read the subtitles lol, and you could have used the saw blade for the spring, just a case of annealing it first and then doing your wok and heat treating it again to harden it before a tempering session, worth looking at some video's about how to heat treat steels

[@user-vi9si3eu3s]

Хороший экземпляр для музея.

[@kir.il2794]

Отличный результат , прекрасная работа . Спасибо

[@jonoa5560]

I knew you could do this project and you did an excellent job 👍👍💫

[@ScrewsAndTools]

Thank you! ^_^

[@dustyak79]

5 is likely an inventory mark not necessarily a serial number but could be there to match some hand fittings or something more administrative on the factory end to keep things in order.

[@shimoda567]

good project my friend

[@patanvalle9379]

Buen trabajo... la empuñadura debía ser de ébano, Saludos desde Buenos Aires

[@brianchester4218]

Great job Alex i was sat there thinking TEST TIME HAS COME lol you are a jem mate keep up the good work

[@user-gd8zd3ye1f]

Всё прекрасно, но рукоять, я бы сделал с более плавным изгибом.

[@ericfg806]

Another impressive job. BeeBeep indeed!

[@coreyrowe2052]

Great job Alex!! This was a fun video...I could tell you were working very hard with this one 👍👍👍

[@user-ef4lt8hg5l]

Рукоятка классная!👍

[@oldcomrade_5825]

Какой крутой проект! Но представьте себе если пистолет работал... было-бы даже круче

[@DJMarcO138]

Really cool! I love these unique projects you work on - well done my friend!! Happy New Year to you and your family!

[@steveh7823]

Amazing result👍. It looks like it was a real weapon maybe carried by a wealthy merchant; a mini shotgun but the firing pins, springs and sears are too far gone. At one point I thought you were going to use the remains of the old grip to make bone inlays on the new grip.

[@oleg_konovalov]

Доброго времени суток, Алекс! Холодное оружие уже освоено, переходим на огнестрельное! 😉 Французский карманный пистоль, это ещё только начало. Вот когда друг начнёт приносить пушки, тогда будет сложнее или скорей тяжелее. Хорошая работа! Хоть и не привычная, но человеку свойственно развиваться. 👍
