RAIDER REFURB

[The one 8,481]

Looking good mate  . its scary to imagine  what you could do if you had a workshop  you would never be out always refurbishing  guns

Well as far as i can go at the minute with this old girl 

need to order the full set of seals or see if viz has any left

redid the blueing but its not taking in some parts of the action

Paul did say there was some thing spilled on her

its bluing lovely on most of her but it will not take on the parts that have had the spillage on her 

iv washed it with soapy water to remove all the oil but to no avail

iv got it now where its gone gray and not black but it was silver at one point lol

the stock is all done ,

Im going to leave her for the time being then strip it back and see how far the black stain has gone in to the stock .

but for now she is usable lol

Very nice mate. 

I don't know what had been sprayed on the action and stock it came to me like that. 

Probably some sort of farm chemicals the gun had been a hunters gun for years before I got it.

Useful to know that all that polishing will make the barrel grow longer and scope get shorter.

If your referring to the rifle on page 1 ,,,15 or 16 posts down its not the same rifle 

thats a hw100 fitted with an mtc scope

and the one above is a webley raider  fitted with a  mount master scope

so if your going to make a funny comment read the thread and dont just look at the pics

How'd you polish that table to show reflections like that though?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I know I'm a twat lol

Not sure you'll get the blueing even mate, once its eaten into metal the chemical will be hard to get off

without wrecking the rest of the good blueing.

Looking good so far though
