Antique Rifle Restorations by the Gun Doctor
A web site dedicated to the restoration and building of antique rifles
I bought a very nice Highwall in 40-70 SS. The action is from 1887 with a Badger barrel. The action was polished nicely but still in the white so I casehardened it this 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
