Just a quick update,
I’ve completed the de-rusting of all small parts. Yesterday I cobbled together a tank large enough to de-rust the barrel and it’s done as well. Don’t waste your time with those small wall transformers that I’ve been using. I burned up three in short order.
The fit up and function of the action went well.

Sorry out of time for now. I’ll work on getting a nice big wordy and full of pictures post soon.

Joel.
