    JB Weld, screw holes and refinshing.....

    Devcon makes a whole series of epoxy/metal fillers. They are far superior to JB in every sense. Look them up on the web (Brownells carries them).

    Request Finish "Repair" Suggestions

    I would try Brownell's Gun Kote. It is a bake on finish that is pretty tuff. You can get it in a spray can, but it is best applied with an airbrush. It is available in a number of black and blue/black colors. Good Luck

    Removing rust without excessive finish damage?

    I would use Kroil rather than plain oil, it leaves a superior corrosin resisting film and helps desolve the rust.

    Titanium Firing Pin

    Steel is more ductile than Ti, thus it is far more suitable for applications involving concussion. Ti use in firearms should be restricted to such things as BR rifles (where lock time is a consideration. For duty/SD/hunting weapons it should not be used in fireing pins, where failure of the...

    AR question, Is it ok to put 223 rem bolt in Yankee Hill Mil spec upper reciever?

    Which things to avoid that will damage the barrel

    I use VFG pellets from Brownells. Their "aggressive" pellets will get out the crud/fouling (especially when used with J-B Non-embedding Bore Cleaning Compound/Kroil ) with no damage!! If you follow this up with fine pellets and J-B Bore Bright/Kroil you can clean up a horrible looking bore to...

    Contact Boyd's Stocks, if you send them an exemplar (your old stock) they can make a new one with your choice of wood/finish. 'Taint cheap, but you will have a beautiful stock:)

    Help/advice restoring a Remington 51

    Any reblue willl destroy the value of the pistol. Short of sending it to Turnbull (mega-bucks) I would clean it with some 0000 steel wool an a good oil (for this application I would recommend Hoppe's). I have a 1905 S&W that has almost no blue remaining, but that is part of its history. I...

    Building a GI Spec 1911

    While truley original, unissued GI parts are interchangable, it is unlikely that you will find them. A poorly fit barrel can make a 1911 dangerous (here I am talking about the barrel to shroud fit. This is not a project for an untrained individual to do. Good Luck

    Building a GI Spec 1911

    In order to tighten the slide to frame fit you will have to peen the rails on the slide, not for the amature (it requires expensive gauges to maintain the proper engagement). The grip sarety could require some fitting, but withthe Kunhausen books you could probably do thet yourself. Teh barrel...
