Thread: 303 Gun Oil

60 years ago I worked in Tisdalls Sports in Palmy after school and during the holidays. One of my jobs once a week was to oil the rifles on display. There was a big line of them unlocked and open to the public to take out of the rack and look at so they got very finger marked. The oil used was Youngs 303. Just the mention of it brings back so many youthful and happy memories.
I loved that job. They offered me a full time job but my solo Mum said I had to get a "trade". Lasted 3 years and then ran away from home to go shepherding.
