I have a video of the gun in its "before" state that I would be happy to contribute. It is not too pretty and makes it all that more amazing that Charlie has it working.

Do you believe in miracles? This restoration will be one. Best of luck to you Charlie, it will be a real project!

Charlie, you crack me up. I had a pint of syrup boxed up for you, but changed my mind and am sending you a quart. I swear, you are the new Popcorn Sutton.

Okay...I give up. Who is Popcorn Sutton?

Charlie, that's exactly what I had in mind. We would like to see a video of the test fire with "before" pictures in the introduction.

What Charlie is doing is exactly what this old gun needs - a restoration to shooting condition, but otherwise leaving the character it has acquired in its hard life.
PS: Nothing beats some good 'shine either |
