restoration
The Restoration of the Stuart monarchy in the kingdoms of England, Scotland and Ireland took place in 1660 when King Charles II returned from exile in Europe. The preceding period of the Protectorate and the civil wars came to be known as the Interregnum (1649–1660).
The term Restoration is also used to describe the period of several years after, in which a new political settlement was established. It is very often used to cover the whole reign of Charles II (1660–1685) and often the brief reign of his younger brother James II (1685–1688). In certain contexts it may be used to cover the whole period of the later Stuart monarchs as far as the death of Queen Anne and the accession of the Hanoverian George I in 1714. For example, Restoration comedy typically encompasses works written as late as 1710.

Sporterized K98K Restoration & Rehabilitation Project
A few weeks ago, I acquired a German WW2 Mauser byf 43 K98k that had been sporterized. I'm guessing that it was converted sometime in the '60s or '70s based on the look of the sport stock. Normally I don't give these sport conversions a second look because they are usually drilled and tapped...- Discussion Thread

Firearm Restoration
Would anyone like to recommend a firearm restoration professional in the PNW? I have an older rifle that I would like to give new life to, rather than spend that money on a new one. This one is special to me, so I'm looking for someone who I can trust to do an excellent job. Thank you!- Discussion Thread

Rusty Magazine Restoration
I have an older Hi-Standard 22lr magazine that has seen better days. Would like to restore it to something that won't give me tetanus and functional in the gun. Any ideas on how to start? Specifically removing the rust and possibly putting a coating on it so it doesn't rust again?- Discussion Thread

Do You Know Of A Good Restoration Gunsmith?
I have a Winchester 73 that would require a competent gunsmith to work over. Either a complete or partial restoration. A complete restoration would require relining a barrel, fixing some gouges in the metal, and a complete re-bluing. Doug Turnbull back east is the guru, but I would prefer...- Discussion Thread

Antler restoration, preservation?
In 98 my dad shot a moose. It's the only set of antlers he ever took that was really worth mounting. They have been hanging under the eaves of Mom and Dad's house since 99 and have been bleached out some. Moose antlers don't fit well in most homes and I've decided to hang them in my shop. Before...- Discussion Thread

Trying to refurbish family heirlooms that went through the Santiam Fire (only hoping for wall-hangers)
So my uncle's house was completely burned to the ground in the Santiam Fire, and he had all of my late grandfather's guns. Every single one had the stocks completely burned off, scope glass melted, and none of them will ever work again. However, he had 2 Winchester Model 94's and 2 Winchester...- Discussion Thread

Here are a few picks of a recent restoration of a 1915 Stevens Favorite .22 single shot that I recently completed.
