Starting on the walnut stock next needs totally rubbing down and finishing . think iam going to use boiled linseed oil on it.ive ordered spring kit Welsh willy got new seals polished all internals including trigger Sears .before I started I fired the rifle and it was terrible the trigger was awful.some one had messed with trigger adjustments .the main spring had been cut down and the end not finished off. looking forward to getting it all back together .enjoying doing the restoration .the wife thinks iam mad .they don't understand .got my old airsporter to do next. w 4 Quote Link to post
