Savage Model 29B!

I will take this rifle to the range tomorrow. Not worth much to collectors and to be honest in really rough shape cosmetically. As long as I put stuff on it and then came back the next day with 0000 steel wool the rust would come off. The internals however were in outstanding condition (sorta). Quick bath with the ultrasonic cleaner and a soaking. 


Then cleaning! 

Wish me luck. I LOVE bringing old stuff back to life.

  2. That's good news, it may not be pretty, but I'm betting it'll still shoot! :-)

  3. That's the best kind of old gun - little or no collector value to keep you from using and enjoying it.

  4. A most excellent job. Every time one of these once-loved old guns is saved, an angel gets it's wings.
