Ultimate Gun Restoration Extreme Rust Encrusted Revolver Pistol Found Magnet Fishing!

[@TheFisher]

Thank you for watching! ❤️ 😊

[@outdoorfunwithb]

I enjoy every vlog everytime that notification bell goes off keep it up can't wait to see what's in store next 👍

[@TallicatGames]

This is fake. That gun has casting seams all down the middle of the "barrel" and the grip. And the crusty stuff you're hammering off (and if that were a real firearm, you wouldn't be hammering that stuff off for fear of damaging the firearm, you'd soak it in some kind of solution) is metallic in sheen, so it would catch the magnet. You fabricated this toy into a crusty mess, then threw it in the water where you "found" it magnet-fishing, and it IS a toy. It isn't a real firearm. Don't lie to people for views and ad revenue. That's not cool, dude. Also, when you begin to grind at the thing, you can EASILY TELL that the cylinder is part of the main body; it's all one piece. That's a pewter toy. You added powdered steel to the crusty stuff you encrusted that toy with, so it would catch the magnet. Because pewter doesn't magnetise, and that is CLEARLY pewter.

[@Chaedron1]

I'm going to say that is a toy gun because it looks like the gun was made in two parts which you can see with the seam and then screwed together and the cylinder doesn't look like it is made to move. Its still a nice find and possibly from the 50s, too bad the barrel broke. Oh well, you live you learn. Great video, hope to see you do more.

[@SurajSharma-f4f]

it definitely is a toy gun.

[@amarapalmer4288]

Yeah

[@soggeynoodlebear4339]

That chisel had my anxiety going😂

[@cindiberg7718]

Try soaking things in vinegar for a couple days to dissolve the rust instead of using force.

[@tinamarlatt6797]

I think a wire brush attached to a drill or grinder would do a better job instead of the hammer and pick and maybe not break it!

[@stacybrwneyes]

I'm curious as to why you didn't do the electrolysis thing (is that what it's called?) I honestly have no idea about any of this, genuinely curious ❤️

[@stevenhovinga6584]

Tyler, have you ever watched Rusty Restore? it might give you some ideas for removing the crude without damaging fragile parts. I know it was a toy gun but still a super cool find and probably from the 60s or 70s Keep up the good work. ✌

[@CalOutdoors83]

Hey Tyler here's an idea that I have used on some old rusted tools that I found with my metal detector do a baking soda paste then soaking them in apple cider vinegar or just some CLR.

[@toasted4112]

I remember when you caught that. Wonder if soaking it in mineral oil first would have made it easier to clean

[@mcncirce]

Wouldn't it be gentler to use electrolysis?

[@donnapadgett6583]

I remember when you pulled it out the water 😅. Great job 😊

[@RainbowTheSnail]

Its so satisfying watching the rust ping off💗

[@misterfeedback202]

Fisher, I love your magnet fishing videos. I have been watching them a long time. The restoration videos scare me. Please consider your subscriber’s comments about soaking items first and soft brushes for cleaning.

[@J.Bizzel]

Interesting but not really a restoration. 😅 Take a dry ice blaster

[@RainbowTheSnail]

Im so glad these videos are back. ❤ this one didn't go as well as planned but i still enjoyed watching 💗 its going to look great on your shelf.

[@CowieLoveswhi]

Yep it will look good on his shelf

[@contentcreations6810]

I’m already getting so hyped

[@jamesmarshalla8565]

I know it’s going to be a great video because the Fisher is on it! Great job on the gun Tyler!

[@dclawnmaintenanceandsnowre4099]

I wonder if a ultrasonic cleaner machine would work on the gun or other items

[@josephrobinson8894]

Brass hammer bud, brass hammer to remove the oxidation scale layer and a sharp brass punch (won’t harm the surface) to get in the corners and hidden areas 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@redgarcia1427]

When you 1st started hammering on it I said "oh dude I wouldn't do that you're flirting with disaster" and boom..you broke the trigger guard!!🐢✌

[@pamalbers3009]

Love watching you restore some of your great finds from the depths of the waters. Would love to see more! Love watching these videos as well as the videos where you're actually fishing for your great finds!❤

[@CowieLoveswhi]

Good job Tyler

[@PatSanMagAng]

Great Job 🔥🔥nice Video. Thanks ❤❤

[@CowieLoveswhi]

These vids are so satisfying

[@harrisonlewis6853]

Tyler, knowing my pistols as I do, I knew it was a 'cap' gun.

[@carrestore]

Beautiful restoration

[@georgieporgie490]

Cool stuff. Maybe a less heavy hammer ? I've screwed up lots with a too heavy hammer.

[@donnamitchell7707]

Awesome job restoring the pistol 🔫. Its a shame that the barrel broke. That pistol is a beauty. You should a glass bead machine to get all the rust off. That pistol is very old,your so lucky to have found it. Have a great day my friend ❤️🙂⚘️.

[@aliasfred]

The barrel broke because at one time in the video he actually squeezed it in his and proceeded to beat on the rest of the gun with a claw hammer and that huge pick.

[@susanlistman439]

I loved it! Even though I spent most of the video reassuring myself you wouldn’t have posted it if it was loaded and went off! But I was a little worried. Wonderful job Tyler, keep it up.

[@deaniseshewokis3315]

Same here. I am like. What if it is a jam and is loaded…..

[@toolman9573]

If you'd soaked it for a couple of days in vinegar most of that Russ would have came off by itself. What was left you could knock off with a wire brush. White vinegar is well known as a rust remover

[@k1ngconker544]

My thoughts exactly

[@stadfeld]

A very cool find!!!

[@lorienray6216]

What a great find, exciting to see what’s all under the crud, the hook can get into narrow areas to show the detail, great job You do any fine restoration, just a tip. I asked my dentist for her old tools, they can only use them for a short term, then they dispose of them. It’s great to have them when trying to get into narrow, detailed areas

[@leenoah1505]

I am scrolling through the comments just hoping to see someone say, "Oh my goodness, I had one of those toys when I was a kid, but I dropped it into the river!" 💗

[@lindamcconnell6613]

Yeah. Disappointed it turned out to be a toy, but still. Before I knew that the first thing that came to mind was, Al Capone. LOL. Way cool!!!

[@bobweiss9138]

Good 👍 job but for something like that you should have brass brushes it will do less harm to the metal 😉

[@MASI_forging]

Very satisfying 👍👍

[@redgarcia1427]

Oh god the barrel too!! Electrolysis only!!🐢✌

[@mustangsally0928]

Looks like an antique toy cap gun from maybe the 50s but they made metal toy cap guns all the way through the 70s I think.

[@normajefferson3977]

Beautiful piece. Thank you so sharing

[@ralphreinhardt6020]

Yeah, that's a toy gun. Still, it was a cool find. 😎👍

[@atlantahawkins9054]

you did an amazing job on restoring that gun. it looks cool.

[@tiffanyslickerman8980]

Have you tried the reusable rust remover. It is awesome ...

[@kacythomas7436]

My first thought was that looked like a cap gun I had as a child in the 50's.

[@WatcherintheDark69]

Well, there's always superglue to fix the snapped off parts. Must have been a sad day when the kid playing with it by the canal and it dropped in. It would look nice in a display case.

[@lillieboulanger-potts2074]

I've been waiting for you to do another restoration❤❤😊 don't wait so long the next time

[@scottward8446]

Before you started on it you needed to put in a sonic bath with some detergent to help loosen the stuff off

[@RandysWorld65]

WoW! Great job!!

[@squirrelsmagnetfishingoutdoors]

Nice clean up on this gun looks awesome

[@darlatidwell6255]

You made it look like a gun again. It looks nice. restored.

[@DJDiane-xz4jh]

Very cool 1950's toy cap gun!! 🙂

[@silvershark1763]

Should of soldered it back together but it's all good awesome video keep them coming

[@rosenewton6157]

Great job Fisher!!! Glad it didn't go to the scrap yard!!! Gonna look great in your collection of super cool finds!!! Thank for letting us watch!!

[@tammyjoe7776]

Love the video. Love the design on the handle! Keep up these restoration videos 🥰

[@cobravids]

I know by watching you are not familiar with delicate restorations. 1. You meed to use a wooden block vice. It will prevent damaging item. 2. You don't use a chisel and hammer. 3. It really looks like you dipped it in concrete mixed with dirt. Had to stop when the barrel snapped.

[@cheyenneallen4901]

Awesome video it happens they weaken up with all that mud and rote on it

[@davidlinkletter4865]

What a pity breaking off those parts 😢 might I suggest that you use an old chisel and go length ways down the piece that should clean the project but not bang down on it from above and breaking the more thinner weeker parts that the rust had already caused the project to be very frail try that and see how it works out for you

[@arlenebrooks5163]

Nice little toy gun there! Very old and some kid probably hated losing it!

[@KSwapTheWorld69]

I want to find a way to clean my treasures magnet fishing!

[@aliasfred]

You need one of those engraving tools, the tip vibrates at over 1,000 fine strokes per minute, you have better control over what comes off.

[@shawnshort5218]

Beautiful.

[@doreen0]

There’s gotta be some type of glue you could use glued back on then sand off the residue when it’s dried

[@tinas1383]

Wow you did a great job on that gun!!!

[@Twicenightly00]

Excellent video, best thing I've seen in a long timd. I would have used a much smaller and shaper pick with either an acrylic, rubber, or leather hammer, I'd have to base that last part on "feel" though.

[@paulworsaa8739]

That was just plain painful to watch

[@mikelane1065]

That's amazing! Good job!

[@doreen0]

Sure not to be a cool looking gun. I like the design on the handle. Good job Tyler.👍🏼👍🏼🍺

[@fifiby]

Sympa la trouvaille du aurait dû utiliser du vinaigre blanc

[@rachellarsen939]

Very cool 😎 🔫

[@Gaming.with.Benjamin]

I would soak it or try electrolocis before banging on it, something like that you don’t wanna be banging on as an antique

[@CaptRobertApril]

I'd be interested if there's still a roll of caps inside....

[@patrickkirkby102]

Once I realized how small it was I figured it was a toy, but still a great find, considering how old those old metal toy guns are.

[@TallicatGames]

It IS a toy. And it is made out of pewter. Pewter doesn't catch magnets. He took some kind of silicate, and maybe porcelain or some other medium, mixed some dirt or rust powder into it, then added powdered steel to it, then threw it into the river so he could "find" it magnet fishing. He's lying to people.

[@patrickkirkby102]

@@TallicatGames Prove it? That sounds like a lot of work to get people to watch his video even though they were going to watch it anyways.

[@TallicatGames]

@@patrickkirkby102 Just watch the video and pay attention. The stuff on the outside of the pewter toy has metal in it. It has to, because the toy itself is made of pewter and pewter doesn't magnetise. That isn't pewter oxidation... and if something had sat in a river or lake for any length of time, it definitely wouldn't be encrusted like that. And it wouldn't be laden with enough metal to be caught by the magnet. All of those things would be impossible UNLESS he'd created the crusty stuff, and then planted the toy.

[@patrickkirkby102]

@@TallicatGames That's a real stretch. He restored this one on his other channel, and I'm pretty certain it's more than just pewter. Tracking down an antique toy gun and covering it in some magic crust is way more work than it would be worth. There's no way he did that. Edit: I got confused and forgot which channel I was commenting on, Still pretty doubtful that he faked it.

[@TallicatGames]

@@patrickkirkby102 It isn't, actually. There are plenty of videos detailing how that kind of trickery is done BY 'restoration' channels. It's relatively easy and simple and, if they get enough views, they can afford to 'destroy' something just to restore it in a video. It's relatively simple to tell, too. Firstly, that is 100% pewter. I guarantee it. Especially given how easily it was broken while he was picking the suspiciously metallic crust off of it. It isn't a real firearm either, nor is it a pop gun. It's a pewter toy gun. It is CLEARLY pewter. If you'd like to see a video illustrating how easy it is to create a fake 'antique' to restore, I'll link it for you.

[@jamesraddatz2613]

Nice wall hanger

[@IamLinda_]

Omg that's so sad. That wasn't a restoration; it was a destruction. Sorry Tyler.

[@koen_bakker]

I agree with you. I mean, it's so obvious something that has been underwater for years and has become brittle is gonna break apart when you clamp it in a vise and hammer on the other end. The wire brush was wayyyyy to big. You could literally see the metal being ground away. Well, at least he learned something I guess.

[@thefisherfarm]

It’s just fine for sitting on my shelf 🤣

[@LordAlduin]

@@thefisherfarm Right? Wow, your comment sections are always so bizarre to me. Such an age gap. Whatever, I think you did great, man. I would have cut that thing in a million pieces.

[@koen_bakker]

@@thefisherfarm you don't really understand the historical vallue behind it do you? It just makes me kinda sad to see it being broke apart into pieces if you know what I mean. The other restorations you did are great tho, especially the one with the enamel sign. If you buy the right tools for the job, your restorations could become even better. 👍

[@darleneisaacs2641]

Wow! Tyler what an awesome job! Way to go!

[@dannmccord1923]

Good job on the pistol it looks great. I bet its really old

[@carolineloeser3071]

What a treasure 😍

[@teamjohnson6164]

Man I was hoping and wishing it was gonna be a real one this time! Still a cool find and awesome cleanup job!👍

[@michaelgatford6194]

A great job and the damaged couldn't be helped. You need to display this for sure.

[@kimmontgomery54]

Tyler, did you know or think that it was a toy before you started the restoration? I only figured it out when you broke the trigger guard! I’m guessing not everyone did! Good video! Although it is a toy, it probably still has some value!❤❤

[@Juls716]

Do you think if you would have just used electrolysis, none of it would have broken or split?

[@CowieLoveswhi]

Oops you broke the gun me when it happened (nothing happened..........)😅😅😅😅

[@LowKeyTroll]

"For Sale: Like new. Barely fired."

[@JerryNorton-t9p]

That is why you soak the gun in apple cider vinegar for a few days

[@aliasfred]

Red cider vinegar soak first, flake off what you can get, then electrolysis it.

[@brandonkinzler3188]

This is exactly what not to do when restoring a firearm wow man

[@robertrabhudsonhornet5869]

I think it might have been better if it was sand blasted with ground wallnut shells

[@kacythomas7436]

Add on my cap gun the cylinder turned like on a real gun. To bad this was one of the cheaper ones. Good job cleaning it up, even so it's not something you see anymore. I doubt you could find a nice metal cap gun for your son to play with. I and my siblings good time playing cowboys and bad guys.

[@mrhamburger6936]

That looks like an old antique toy pistol

[@roseperryman3446]

Tyler the things you call caltrops are from the civil war google them there is a nice story about them on there

[@JerryNorton-t9p]

What else is new dude, how ment more snafus are you gonna do to that revolver

[@sandraengle7674]

Try soaking things like this in 5% vinegar, or CLR.

[@jackinthebox507]

How old do u think it is?

[@-tzadakim-7805]

Honestly, good thing it was just a toy lol

[@martingolding4951]

Looks like a kids' toy gun and has more rust than the titanic
