I acquired this gun from a friend of mine. It is my ONLY non S&W handgun.
It had a rough life, sort of a junk yard dog. Spent most of its 32 years in a semi. My guess would be jammed between the bulkhead and the bunk for quick access. It has been abused, but not fired much. Everything is tight as new.
Here are some pics from just after I started, to finish. My only regret is I didn't take a picture before I started, only after I got rolling. Started about the 1st week in April, and just finished officially this morning. A little time here and there.
I have no experience with refinishing, but what the heck, I gave it a try. I figured, if I couldn't make it look pretty, it still would shoot like h*ll!!!
I won't post many pics, (to save room here) but I think if you click on a picture, it will take you to photo bucket and you can see the total progress. All my pictures are public.
Thanks for checking it out.
