There's a few pictures of the gun. sorry they arent all on one post but im not too good with putting pictures up on here.

 

I have been speaking with Bigmac and he has talked me through each step on how to restore this rifle so I am going to give it a good go and see if i can bring her back to life.

 

I dont expect to get anywhere near as good as mac does himself but i will try.

 

I will start on the restoration once i have all the relevant equipment to do so and i will keep everyone up to date on how i get on.

 

Wish me luck

Wow a mod 50 late 1970s if I remember what the owner told me of the only one iv seen in the flesh very rare I think?. Shot one of these in my youth was very nice!

There's too many scratches and dents Joe and I would just love to see her free from them because she jist looks scruffy.

 

A but of TLC and she will be reliving her youth

I like that BD

 

Are you going to keep it as is, with open sights or, bung a scope on it?

Hell of a lot of stippling on her mind BD (Chris)

 

it will be tricky to do just take your time with it and she will be right

 

as Viz my mate would say

 

SLOWLY,,,SLOWLY,,CATCH THE MONKEY

 

Time is your best friend when refurbishing a rifle

 

THERE IS NO QUICK WAY

 

Some one once ask,d me why i took so long doing the rifles and the best way i could answer him was

 

I treat every rifle as if it were mine i get a picture in my head and thats the way i need it to look

 

NOTHING ELSE WILL DO

 

and the end result is worth the wait

 

just some of the ones iv put right Chris

I'm not entirely sure yet mate, I would like to keep the open sight on but I will see how I feel when she is complete.

You can rest assured I will be taking my time with her mac, I'm in no rush and it's a project for myself so nobody is expecting the gun back.

 

It will take me a while to do it but I don't mind and I'm more than willing to put the graft in.

 

I've said it before and I'll say it again, the rifles you have restored are brilliant and you clearly have a passion for it.

 

I'm glad your only up the road from me because if I get stuck I will be knocking at your door for help and tips
