Hope that works out for you, Act. Sorry that the vision loss in your right eye looks like it's permanent.
Does it sound like your neighborhood is under attack with the house doing the shake, rattle, and roll?
Perty!
Holy crap bs, those rifles are beautiful!
Call for 1775usmarine. July 3rd and not a phone call so I guess I didn't win the raffle. Who won?
They cleaned up pretty nice. 99% cosmoline free! I wanted to just clean them up to shoot and let their scars tell the story. The SKS must have been issued to a guy who shoots backwards. You can tell he was a lefty by the discoloration on the stock where his cheek rested.
I did basically the same with my Mosin. But I bought an extra stock to clean up which i took all the lacquer off and then put a semi gloss clear coat over it. I kept the original stock how it looked with no messing with that.
Sooooo got some trigger time today... Went through some 35 Remington... have to do some reloading again...
