Hello brother, I admire your art, Bronkize. I searched a lot for this tool, but I couldn't find it. What is the name of this tool?

I didn’t realize how involved it is to properly install this very fine safety. I dislike & don’t trust trigger safeties.

If a person wanted to put innereds in a box to make a nice presentation case for a Smith and Wesson 3rd model New Frontier, is there a place where I could find that information? I already have the case.

Thank you Jim for all your expertise in the gun industry.

Nice video and a nice gentleman. I'm going to have to watch more of the ACGG videos as this one was pretty short on technical details. But, I did learn you use a spray adhesive to glue the fabric ("baize"?) to the wooden compartment seperators.

Keep building those QUALITY mauser sporters people, give them a new non military life, it's what your grandpa would want, if the gun could talk it's what "IT" would want

More please.

Thank you for posting this. He seems so genuine and kind. Hearing some of the thinking behind his work was really inspiring

Great video! What ratio do you use for your etching solution?

I have never seen a Damascus shotgun barrel. Would it be safe to fire, modern shotgun ammunition in those barrels?

Where do you find the need parts ?

Thanks so much, I always wonder how quarter ribs and barrel mounted scope bases were made. Not nearly as COMPLICATED as I thought but I do know it requires precise measurements and a Craftsman’s hand.

Beautiful rifles

I got a pair of Wisner 98 Mauser side swing safeties, with one intended to use on a 1936 Mexican sporter. Wisner's products are top notch.

Kids at home, dont check your nails! haha. Excellent work!.

Most excellent video. Thanks so much for posting this. Watching this gave me a good idea why one blank is cost quadruple what others do and also why the grain is important regardless of what grade blank you want. Soon I’ll be cutting a tree to pull a better blank than I would have before.

Gold medal for having the most boringly dreary miserable moping personality on the whole of youtube?

I love the idea of teaching what you know and not holding back hard earned experience. It’s investing in the future of custom gunmaking and I think it’s the right way. Thank you.

Love the video! Fine work from all. Any chance you've got more video of the barrel machining? For most it's like watching paint dry, but for me it's more like watching a time lapse of an ant colony eating the flesh off a predator skull leaving something spectacular in the end.

👍🏻

wow and hi, at 17 minutes- how much is that piece of woos today?

I've been installing these for many years, and this is the most concise, simple to understand, and CORRECT video of the process. First class my friend!

Please add more videos! Its been almost a year!

Wonderful 👏.

Beautiful rifle

Who makes and sells the custom sights you mention ? I need one made for my JP Saur oberdorfer, mines missing

I have the same? Dembart handle, but my blades are like little files & don't work well ,what brand and style are the cutters you are using I want to order some, from brownells? or where ?

Do you provide this service?

I'm glad I had the privilege to meet fred many years ago.

Thank you for posting this video, who would have guessed gunstock wood and wine grapes could be similar. I.e., Royal Walnut grown in one area will be different than Royal Walnut grown a different area. Cabernet sauvignon grapes grown in France will produce a different wine than Cabernet sauvignon grapes grown in California even though they are the same variety. Interesting

That thumbnail is gnarly. Good info otherwise, thanks for making the video.

I bet he kept his neighbors happy lol

I remember Jims shop in Chehalis, Wa. In following years I bought Winchester 70 parts from him. All displayed excellent workmanship.

That's pure craftsmanship!

Beautiful rifle

Why are you blueing Damascus barrels? They should be browned to enhance the pattern. "Blueing" or blacking as we call it is for modern steel.

This is the finest Gunsmith video, and I've watched thousands, I've ever seen! Larry Potterfield, I'm sorry to say has been moved to 2nd place.lol Concise and informative! Thank you.

I wish there would be the rest of it

Not too many artisanal gunsmiths these days. Theres a million who make custom assembled guns (which have there own merit) but not many who make guns like these. It's definitely a dying art

You lost me at the bench wire wheel. Im surprised you dont leave it outside for a week between steps for a nice rerusting

I am curious what you use to finish a rifle stock ?

Could you post a video on making the checkering cradle you are using. Looks like a good cradle and fairly easy to fabricate.

Por favor qual o nome desta máquina?

Thank you so much for this video! I have not been able to find great information on the process when it comes to firearms. What's funny is, I'm currently attempting to give my CZ Shadow 2 Orange a mirror finish and I was wondering what it would look like with a color case hardening. This video literally answered it a minute after I had the thought.

I need to find a smith capable of this.

Interesting furnace , why not hinges ?

No secrets? Why the "cut" at 7:45? Thanks for the video.

Nice work

what is the electric tool you use in this video and will it work on re-checkering
