I live way out in a rural area and had a neighbor ask if I wanted this pistol he bought as a kit back around 1968, it was kind of hobbled together and never finished. of course I jumped on the offer, it looked like the only things missing were the rear sight and ramrod.
so I took a few before and after pics. I know it's not worth a lot so I didn't go the extra mile on it but it did come out pretty nice.
It felt good for the soul to bring this rusty relic back to shooter condition.

Show it to your neighbor yet? Great job. Polecat
Yea, I sent him pictures, said I did a great job and if he didn't give it to me it would still be sitting in a box in his barn.
actually the bore is in terrific shape and it's never been fired.
I'm waiting until I make up a good size order with Midway and just buy a Lee mould for it rather than buy a box of round balls.
fortunately, where I live I can shoot in my yard so I'm looking forward to adding it to my shooting arsenal. :D
