Antique Rifle Restorations by the Gun Doctor
A web site dedicated to the restoration and building of antique rifles
I am making some progress on my fowler. The finish is really starting to show the figure. After I took these pics I rubbed it down with 800 grit pad and put another coat of Osmo oil. The barrel still needed another coat of browning too but hopefully it will be ready to shoot by the weekend.
I am a hobby gunsmith by night and teach at a University by day. I love taking old basket case but classic rifles and breathing new life into them. I do have a Ph.D. but it is in feed processing and nutrition and nothing to do with classic rifles but some of my friends call me the gun doctor for bringing these pieces back to life. I especially enjoy some of the old school methods like bone charcoal color casehardening. View more posts
