I am considering cut the barrel on my open top. This is a gun that I never plan to get rid of so it will always be with me simply because of the cool factor.

The dust and carbon buildup was epic, it still ran...

The internals seem to be in good shape, but the wood on both of them are covered with the mildew. I'm looking for somebody who can clean up the stocks and check out/clean up the internals on both and clean up the wood without harming it. Prefer Jackson area, but will...

CALLING ALL GUNSMITHS: can a trigger job on an old M98 Mauser produce a crisp 3lb trigger pull with minimal creep?
Alternately, I can replace with a Timney for about $100 and retain the M98 wing safety, or get the $130 version with a thumb safety included.

I found my childhood Single Shot Boito 410 but its missing parts. I think i have everything except making sure I have the correct mainspring and how it is installed. If anyone has one (I believe all calibers are the same) and does not mind removing the stock to take a photo, I would appreciate it ..read more
