A friend of mine recently suffered a house fire which consumed a lot of nice rifles. One of them happened to be a real nice 1.4m 1903. He wound up giving me the leftovers since I was looking for a project to practice some different types of finishes on. As I was cleaning it up and looking at it, it looks to be in still pretty good shape, the stock is gone but the metal was all intact and the barrel does not look like it has bent or warped any. I was just gonna turn it into a wall decorator but after looking at the metal was wondering if there is any way to salvage it as a shooter.I've never dealt with a firearm from a fire and so not sure if that is even an option. Thanks in advance.
