Was looking through an old gun safe with some of my grandpa's guns in it and came across an older Philadelphia Derringer kit gun, my guess is early to mid 90s because I didn't know about it and my uncle didn't know about it either. Anyway, I want to clean it up and finish it so I can shoot it. The bore looks clean and the lock looks pretty well fitted just needs a screw on the back, theres some water staining on the stock but it's solid and also looks pretty well fitted. Other then the rust it seems pretty solid. Once I get the lock off is there anything I should look out for? Also how do I find what the bore size is, a 410 shotgun shell fits snug, and what powder and loading should I start with?
