I disassembled the whole gun,used brasso on brass,lemon oil on the stock and used gunscrubber on the lock and trigger parts then new oil.used foaming bore cleaner with a brass brush inside the bore untill I got clean patches then oiled the bore.Here it is now
The knife is a custom made by a fireman friend of mine,the wood matches real nice.
I am pleased with the results and had a good time doing it.I think I would like to do another.

Man, I'd whoop that youngin in the picture fer lettin that gun get that bad. Just kiddin, that's my boy and a gun that I picked up but never used it. Glad to see it put to good use.
Careful talkin about that boy,he is pretty special to me Mr bigtimer.
I cant tell you how tickled I am to have this rifle and to know it came from some mighty fine people makes it even better for me.I become very attatched to my hunting equipment,I cant wait to work up a good load for it and go hunting.

Very nice job.... Its nice when a rifle gets a new chance. You made it very pretty. I am sure it will shoot fine.

Good job, that really cleaned up nicely. Now go have fun. And welcome to the wonderful world of sidelocks. You will be hooked.
