A great job, absolutely 👍👍👍 I' m a military historian and interested in "ancient" firearms. You turned a "piece of junk" into a collectable beauty..... greetings from northern germany and thank you for sharing it with everyone who likes to see a piece of history being preserved.👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks for preserving the original details. Most of the restoration videos, replace most of the original parts and polish, polish , polish and polish.... to make the artifacts shine and remove tones of metal. Everytime when someone polishes my heart goes like .... NO PLEASE !!!!! Thank you soo very much for your sensibility. You know how to restore and save the artifacts from old times.
I am always impressed with the work and sensibility that you restore perfectly without losing the original texture. I feel like I was saved when I see that the cat saved by you is totally reliant on you. May God bless you in your kindness. Thank you very much.
I’m so glad you’re going into the firearm genre of restorations, no-one else does these vids like you do. Can’t wait to see what you’re going to do next!
Rust bluing was a good call. I would have looked for another cap/nipple guard rather than making one. It retains value that way better, but I get it if the parts are scarce
Excellent video. You did very well resoration of it whithout loose its originality. Every parts you removed & throughly cleaned without looking manual. Then fit it back where it should be.
An older gentleman once told me that denture cleaning tablets can remove rust from older firearms. Surprisingly enough, he was right!! Saved me loads of time on my 1851 revolver!!
@@MikeM10293 It WILL remove the older types of bluing used on most reproductive firearms! How effective this is really depends on how many tablets you use initially.
@@mangamaniaciam well that definitely takes it out of the equation for mild rust removal on otherwise good guns. It does seem like a great way to remove very heavy rust where there is no finish left. I could have used your tip when restoring my .38 revolver that looked like it was buried in the ground for 100 years haha.
@@MikeM10293 Using denture tablets is one of the reasons why I have two re-bluing kits! I used them for my Army San Marcos 1851 revolver. Worked GREAT for the cylinder! Got the rusted in place nipples removed and replaced them with stainless steel ones.
Beautifully done, when I was 15 (1973) I found a gun like the one you restored in this video, I was up in the Sawtooth mountain range in south-central Idaho, I was hiking, and rock climbing in a place called City of Rocks. The Peppermill gun I found was at the base of granite rock that was 6 stories tall that the miners in the area called the "Tower" the gun I found was not in any way as good as shape as your find. Seeing this video brought back that memory of that day in that place, Thank you for putting up this vid.
I really appreciate the fact that you took care not to over-restore this. Some people want to turn every single piece into something that looks brand new, instead of leaving some pieces to look as if it's just a really old item in good condition. Nice work.
I watched your video on restoring that colt rifle and has been mesmerized since...i love your animal friends too...theres something wonderful about a cat man!...You do great work with so much precision and detail!
I love this video . 40 bucks and you now have a museum quality piece easily worth a grand . Beautiful restoration on the pepperbox , pony and Alex ! Happy Fathers Day Andre and all the best .
My Man ..., you made that restoration look so easy , if I had to restore that gun , it would be crushed alone with the other cars at the junk yard , lol , excellent work .
there's a couple words I have to say either the gun was in perfect condition and he left in the rain for maybe a year to make this project or he actually found this.
Nice sympathetic restoration, I felt. Nice that you went to the trouble of keeping as much of the original finish by converting the rust! Good work! Lovely to see Sugar and Alex looking so happy and relaxed :D
I'm glad there are still lots of great restoration channels like this one. I despise some of the newer channels where they just bury a new toy car in a garden and pretend it's some antique masterpiece.
I really wish I could've gotten into something like this. Could use a good hobby or different profession. Love your work as always and I am glad to see the cat again. :)
Yes I was going say the same thing you can find some old and crusty and bring it back to life. Just start out with a few tools and the collection will go from there I have a grinder with many attachments that's just one tool that has mutable purposes. Sand, grind, buff.
Thank-you, thank-you, thank-you for doing that right. I've seen "restoration" videos that would make you cringe. I mean high speed buffing wheels, grinders etc. You have done the most professional gun restoration on RUclips I have ever seen. That pepper box came out beautiful!
Another magic restoration. Thanks for sharing Andre -- nice to know u have good supervision to back you up. Give a pet to QM and a lump for Sugar. Love yer vids. Rock on
Nice result and great junk box find. I’d love to see it fired, but obviously it’s not feasible given the age and condition. I love the way it’s restored just enough to keep its original look.
This video was awesome man I love it and I love the kitty cat too she is very beautiful the whole video which is wonderful to watch love your content keep coming your pal Ashley
The gun is from the armoury of Warwick Castle, and was once the property of The Earl Of Warwick, hence the tiny embossed familial crest. I would imagine it could tell a number of interesting stories.
If he posts him firing it the video gets demonitized and he won't get any add money to invest in new projects for the channel so he posts that as a separate video so he can still make money on the restoration video
@@MastersOfCraftOfficial yea. git some black powder and 30 cal balls and some caps and fire that old dog..lots of smoke, shoot that thing into a phone book, they will no doubt bounce off or never git past page 93.
Awesome restoration and very entertaining video. After watching several of your restoration videos and giving them a thumbs up, I have now subscribed and hit the bell!!
Krásná a citlivá restaurace, prostě radost pohledět, jen se pořád divím, jak se Vám povedlo objevit Pepperbox v našich končinách :) Smekám klobouk a děkuji za super video.
Nice find and excellent restoration, and just when I was getting use to the cat tax you had to up the ante and put in horse tax. Love them both, great helpers!
Stresses me when you take all the little screws and parts off, but I am amazed that you know where and how each little part and screw goes back to. Amazing restoration Andre; I so look forward to your videos. Thank you.
Stunning job on the pistol, and, Yay! Sugar the rescue pony finally made a cameo in a video! The video ending was a very clever surprise. I look forward to seeing the pistol being fired!
Great restore. You got something to be proud of. Take good care of it and pass it on to your kids or someone else who will appreciate it and the work you put into it. Take care.
Your Quality Control team is pretty strict! No wonder they have time off!! Lol!! Nice piece! Good work! Yes, I would carry this in my frock coat pocket for sure. I await your demonstration video!!!
Nice job restoring it. Have seen others almost as Good and a Few reproductions. They Kick like a Mule btw. glad to see your cat restoration has grown its Fur back and is looking Fit.
I'd like to see you fire these rifles and gun's after or even just show the action and pul the trigger. Seeing you fire them would be great. I like watching you work your very skilled....
Who's the daddy .that is a real bit of history to fire it it must be proof tested at proof house in Birmingham or London proof house or gun blows up in ya hands or face 🔫😱🐾🐺👍
@@anarchyfox325 yeah Brother you're right about that, Never used smokeless pistol powder in a Musket loader.....people have died when double loading with smokeless powder. This hand gun would be fine with the right powder tho.

That's because you know nothing about restoration. But then, neither does he, or he wouldn't call his meatball surgery "restoration."
it was necessary to make a test shot from a pistol.

An older gentleman once told me that denture cleaning tablets can remove rust from older firearms. Surprisingly enough, he was right!! Saved me loads of time on my 1851 revolver!!
