Just picked up an older shotgun that has gone a bit rusty. 80% of the bluing is gone. I'm going to give it a tidy up and looking to use some cold bluing to restore the steel work.

Looking at a shot gun on Trade Me. Buyer says must pick up but it's at the other end of the country.
What's the easiest way to ship it Timaru to Auckland. Needs to be no hassle for the seller,...
Auckland will need to get used to this when they get their electric ferries that won't even be able to do a return trip to Waiheke Island.
A friend of mine is in the Eagle Helicopter. He said flicking the flint on a Bic lighter at night is as good as a flare with the night vision gear they have. He said it shows up as a huge flash that...
I would have thought the best way to dispose of any ammo is down a long thin tube with a telescope put on top.
I got a great little very lightweight fry pan from The Warehouse for $10. Perfect for bacon eggs. you can unscrew the handle if you want to make stowing it easier as well.
How hard is it to take a sporterised one back to a fully wooded one. Have thought about doing this but looking at your pics I bet it isn't easy. I see quite a few 303s quite cheap that have been...
Had quite a bit of water but those meals just seemed to suck it up. Had easily enough for normal day hunting and some extra for coffee and cup a soup type of thing.
Compared to having a bit of...
I still use paper LINZ charts. They have a lot of detail and there are lots of places in bush GPS signal is unreliable. They are also great for planning a hunt sitting in living room and working out...
Also found out a couple of weeks ago that dehydrated food is very heavy if there is no water supply where you go. You would think in Tongariro there would be plenty of water but not the case, all...
Under hunting equipment don't forget magazine. Made that mistake once.
So you can see how they roll, they distort their case and make outrageous claims. We could base our claims in pretty solid truth. Like I said some video of these culls underway and the the aftermath...
It doesn't have to be a false claim. I'm sure not all animals receive a clean kill during these operations so even if one animal is found like that it will be enough. I'm certain though there will be...
When has that ever worked for anyone, it sure as hell hasn't worked for the Thar foundation. The woke lefties don't use that method and they seem to make headway in their causes. Those running on...
Of course they will do that just like anyone else does to them. The key is the imagery and stirring the emotive side. Look at the images the lefties use and how it tugs at heart strings.
You can't...
So why don't we use the methods these lot use. Get some video footage of these culls underway. Highlight injured/maimed animals lying on the ground. Show what 10 000 carcasses dumped in the country...
Only just got it so haven't given the ultimate test yet but 'm liking the feel and the way my new 7.62x39 Ruger Ranch Rifle with 14inch barrel. Only punched holes in paper with it so far but it...
I have a Huglu SxS which seems like a nice firearm. Shoots well without too much kick and it's modern so you can put anything through it. Got it 2nd hand for about $800.
The warning labels on the bottles I use. It's a known thing in the industry I work in to keep it off your skin and don't breathe the fumes. you just need to look at what it does to epoxies and paints...
no it has isocyonates in it which are worse. It attacks your central nervous system and the body can't metabolise it so it stays here.
Hope you guys are joking when you say it degreases your...
I would have though acetone would be pretty aggressive on the wood. You are right though it's nasty shit. Wear gloves and proper charcoal breathing filters. Isopropyl alcohol would be easier on the...
Some are a little amusing though. There's a speed sign on the desert road that says "100 it's not a target" and there's half a dozen bullet holes in the target on the sign.
Wow imagine trying to do something like that here. All the hand wringers would be rallying the troops.
There's a clip on YouTube where they use some sort of paste and cycle the bolt a few hundred times to bed the bolt in so to speak. It just smooths all the surfaces off and apparently they are smooth...
Hikok45 does a good review of the ranch rifle in 7.62x39mm on you tube. He shoots a heap of different types of ammo including Russian milsurp ammo. He rated it very well. I'm getting a Ruger Ranch...
