    Good idea to video the BRNO refurb... stock came out beautiful. Yep a lot of 'repeats' you have to do to get a deep bluing... but still we think we should do more 😊

    My God Sir, you took a lovely old rifle and stripped all it's character, the old blueing was far superior to that cold blue which will wear off in no time, it is a classic BRNO man wth...

      Hi. It's going to be used out in the weather shooting possums and rabbits, and will more than likely get wet. The old blueing was gone in a lot of places so those areas would have been susceptible to rust. So this was about preserving the rifle. And no one had said that the cold blue will wear off quickly... But I think that it looks a lot better, and that's the main thing. As for the blueing, only time will tell. Thanks for watching.

    You did a GREAT JOB on your 22lr. I LOVE MY 22lrs. I don't have the patience to spend THAT MUCH TIME on restoring anything but I have done quite a few REPAIRS to make a rifle or pistol that was NON FUNCTIONAL to WORK AGAIN.The project that I'm most proud of is I was able to replace the BREACH BLOCK on a 1914 German Luger (P08). I was successful BUT I did have a couple problems 1 I really didn't have a PROPER area to work (kitchen table and counter) 2 the replacement part I got from SARCO new manufactured part was NOT UP TO SPECS. THE PART FAILED after only 50rds testing. I spent about 4-5 hours stoning the part to fit properly which was TEDIOUS, the Luger is a extremely close tolerance made pistol. SARCO did reimburse me for the part but I did spend a bit of time fitting the part. I was able to procure a ORIGINAL PART from the same time period (the old German eagle)marked. It worked GREAT AND SHOT GREAT, I SHOULD HAVE KEPT IT even though I already had one (standard German army 4") and the 1914 had a after market 8" barrel from Austria (maker who made barrels for Lugers). It was NOT MATCHING and someone POLISHED 90-95% of the pistol which kinda QUEERED IT. My other other Luger was more ORIGINAL. I made some money selling it but REALLY NOT ENOUGH. IT REALLY SHOT GOOD and FUNCTIONED CORRECTLY, the value of even that FRANKENSTEIN would go up and up because of the accuracy and function WHICH IS MOST IMPORTANT WITH THOSE PISTOLS.🤔😯😩😞😮‍💨

    I know this is an old post, but not sure if your aware or not that you can steam out dents and scratches in stocks, take a wash cloth or rag and wet it ring most of the water out enough that it's not dripping all over, then take an iron and hold it on the cloth until most of the water has dried up, then repeat this until your satisfied with the results, it may take a few times to get the grain back level, but it works great as long as it's not too deep, then sand it lightly to blend it back in... I've had great results with this method...good luck !! I have a beautiful BRNO mod 4 that I bought some years back...new in the box... I love BRNO and CZ guns they are great shooters...you might already know about this procedure, but just in case you don't...now you do !!

      Rabbits are scarce these days all over the country, (USA) not sure why, could be the complete spread and saturation of coyotes?
      I have seen a couple programs on the rabbit populations down under, it is incredible, my guess is a lack of predators?

      @@himanshubmt1739 Sorry, I took the answer from the top of my head.....which was not quite accurate. Actually the Brno 2 has a dove tail about 9,5 mm at its narrowest and 11 mm at its widest. The 11mm-3/8 would be a tad too wide I think, even if vendors list them as .22 scope rings. So the correct ring size would be 9-11 mm. There is also other factors to take into consideration. The bolt lift is quite high so I`m not sure the bolt knob will clear the eye piece of the scope unless you use High rings. Another factor is the rear iron sight. With a 40mm scope objective, you`ll need to use the High rings to clear the iron rear sight. You might even need to dismount the elevating part of the iron sight for clearence. You should be good if you use a smaller scope objective though. On the other hand, if you drill and tap the receiver for using a rail, you`ll be home free to use a wider variety of rings and scopes. Please, check up these issues with other sources to before you buy! Again, sorry for the initial inaccurate info!
