Marksman 934 Posted August 24, 2011 Report Share Posted August 24, 2011 (edited) This was kindly donated to be by a guy off Facebook who didnt have the time/spare cash to refurb it so I thought I'd have a go at one of these since the Relum turned out ok...... Initial stripdown reveald a bust breech seal, piston washer & seal had disintegrated, sear spring snapped and the mainspring was well worn, the rest of the components were in pretty good nick and just need degreasing and polishing..... Photos so far.... The way it arrived after initial stripdown Starting the restoration More to be added soon...... Darryl Edited August 24, 2011 by Marksman Quote Link to post
