I just finished my son's Red Ryder Carbine and I used a .177 brass brush to clean the tube & a 12 Ga. brass brush to clean & polish the chamber. What really picked up the speed was smoothing then polishing the Plunger Case and a light coat of molybdenum grease on it. Nice job and good video.
Thank you for posting. I have my Daisy Buck 105 B ill be doing a restoration on. My older brother asked 4 years ago to use my first gun to get rid of his pidgeon infestation.... apparently its been left outside in the sun and rain for 3 years... woohoo!.... so now i have the blessing and the curse to restore my first pew pew. On one hand im extremely annoyed... on the other i get to make this baby pew look however i want at no cost to me! So yeah.... it still goes pew though, remarkably! If anyone has any tips on how to stain wood id be grateful. I can restore metal all day long with my eyes closed. Wood... is a totally different animal. At least to me. Thanks again for posting this!
Great job, the fire blue looks better than original factory paint and the velocity is higher than a brand new Buck.

that's funny, these guns are rated at 250 fps, after a good cleaning it surpassed what was rated for it. Excellent tutorial, thank you sir.
What is the trick to remove the loading gate door without removing the barrel first? Just force it?
I’m afraid so and you can break them getting them out
Thanks! Have a good day. The secret to ranking = P R O M O S M !!
