That sounds like an interesting concoction, John! I have acquired some very old loading tools made by S&W and UMC that have some rust on them. I am able to remove all the crud that is removable, but am left with stained steel.

The 6 frame gun is now reassembled and it functions properly, even the automatic safety! A .001" stainless shim on the hook reduced the barrel/breech gap and brought her back on-face. My next task is loading some ammunition for testing. Even for the occasional 'nostalgia hunt' I am going to be eating lots o' Wheaties!

Am I behind the curve, or is my new crossover gun being ignored? Maybe its progress is being pictured on another thread?

I plan on snapping a few photos of the crossover gun tomorrow, as long as the sun cooperates! My flash photo skills leave something to be desired.
