    Bending Brass Triggergaurd

    All I know is it is Track of the wolf’s pistol Gard. Sounds like I’ll heat it and hope for the best. Thanks for all advice. I must have got lucky , because the long rifle I built from TOTW 5 years ago, the brass triggergaurd fit perfectly without bending.

    First Kit Gun

    I agree with "Zonie" you should use Laurel Mtn.Forge Browning solution.I used all their products when I built my custom longrifle. Browning ,stain,sealers, and finish turned out very good. Just make sure you do browning in humid weather. Good luck with your project.

    Can I use a carbon arrow for a ramrod?
