Found in the attic my grandfathers 1909 Iver Jonson shotgun | Restoration of antique

[@kinggeorge4025]

Hi, I am 71, live in New Zealand and have the same shotgun, my shotgun was brought out to NZ around 1920s by a young American boy who had a job offer on a South Island farm. He spent the rest of his life on this large farm, I managed to buy the gun for 60.00 nz dollars after his death from old age. I will always keep it. Your grandad would be proud of you for putting the time and effort in the restoration of his gun. Good skills and great work. ....Barry Nz

[@paulknights1764]

The fact it was your grandfather’s gun .. makes it even more sweeter.. great 👍🏼 work..

[@paulorth2251]

These old single shots were especially good to teach kids with. Nice work on keeping it old.😊

You mean nice work on restoring it?

This guy is a gun smith extraodinaire. Fantastic, unbelievable work. Thank you for posting.

[@ЗАБРОШЕННАЯРОССИЯкороткиевидео]

I love that you didn’t make it look like some recreation of the original rifle. It looks like an old gun, and that’s the best thing about it. Beautiful restoration.

[@dakotahills2.095]

It's a shotgun.

[@PnwPryo]

[@michaelszabo3071]

One of the best videos on the internet by far. Beautiful work.

[@FrednDeeDee]

I once did a similar restoration and finished it off by painting the entire single shot shotgun with Rustolium Olive Drab Paint. Yes, It is ugly as sin, but still knocks the squirrels out of the trees. I'll give you FIVE STARS+++++ on your works. Dang Good Job!!!!!!

[@jerrytaylor4078]

I have an old Ivers-Johnson that belonged to my Grandfather. Made in the early 60’s, it’s in good shape, still has a strong spring in the hammer. Enjoyed your video, especially the woodworking.

[@deerslayer6419]

Great job! I'm getting ready to work on a Reminton model 11 thats been past down for generations. It's put food on tables for 100 plus years.

[@jgyrwa]

I just had my grandfathers Iver Jonson restored, fully operational condition. Love the etching on the stock and stain.

Very cool I love seeing new life breathed into old "junk"

[@scootergeorge7089]

It can not come back to life until it is capable of being fired. Otherwise, it's just a nice ornament.

[@Zabroshennayarossiya]

Wow, a beautiful restoration. Thank for for preserving this rare gun. I loved how you used the old stock instead of making a new one.

[@dakotahills2.095]

He did make a new butstock & handguard. What video were you watching?

[@monta247]

When the test is open book and still somebody fails.

[@dewaldsteyn1306]

He did make a new one. Are you hallucinating?

[@jimsoltner8978]

I have my grandfathers Iver Johnson in 20 gauge. Good job! They are famous for the stock cracking. Cheers

[@camposthetron]

I just inherited one of these and the stock is indeed cracked. 😂

[@jmurdock7650]

I have one of these that belonged to my Grandfather. I did a little bit of maintenance on it and shot it a couple times. Awesome job

[@marciosiq1811]

Congratulations!!! He sent the restoration very well, it was top!!

[@BigManMike27]

Old single shots are amazing in their simplicity and history

[@garymucher4082]

What a very nice project. It looks great and I'm sure it would shoot too. The hand checkering looks good as well. You need to invest in some checkering tools and make the checkering even finer. Thumbs Up!

[@laurentdevaux5617]

This gun will be forever a wall-hanger, but what a splendid job, congratulations !

[@dakotahills2.095]

Good job on your restoration. I really liked how you used a hacksaw blade to checker the wood stock. Very nicely done.

[@scott1395]

Nice looking finished project, I have a champion as well, it has a dark brown rust patina! 410 Guage, fun little gun!

[@Savage-xl5hq]

I just restored the same gun in 16 gauge I like yours much better! Good job

[@eddieslatten916]

Never seen a Iver Johnson 1909 with birch wood before . All mine from late 1800s through 1968 was walnut. Guess there's a first for everything . Good job .

[@Rodnayaderevnya]

Wonderful work, it was to test at the end giving a shot. one two three and fire 🔥

[@txgunguy2766]

My dad has an old Iver Johnson "Champion" .410 that he inherited from his grandfather. The "notches" on firearms stocks is called "checkering".

[@blueduck9409]

Good job. Im sure your grand father would be proud of you. The stock looks great. If it were mine, id cut the barrel down to 18 inches and thread it so it could take chokes. Id also put a glow sight on the barrel.

[@RetroChug]

I would have liked to see you shoot it! Nice work, especially the fabrication and wood working

he made it impossible to fire,sadly he drilled a hole in the barrel.
