Defarbing 1853 Enfield

[Smokybob]

Does anyone have any experience with Todd Watts defarbing service? He is the only one I know of that is still defarbing muskets since Lodgewood stopped this year. Does anyone have an example of Todds work? Or recommendations of others who offer defarbing work?

I have an 1853 Enfield I want to look like an RT Pritchett from 1861.

The whole point of this is to match the rifle my GGGfather was issued when he was mustered into the 10th South Carolina Infantry.

Todd Watts does good work. He converted an Italian Parker Hale 1853 Enfield to a L.A.C. P53. He recontoured and refinished the stock. Removed the Parker Hale and Italian markings and stamped the correct L.A.C. markings and proof stamps alone with the London Armory rondel on the stock.
