Excellent information on the Remington 24. Thank you for being so organized and not wasting even a minute of our time! This was such an informative series of three video!
Cold blueing is more of a coating than a true bluing. It plates the surface with copper selenide and then darkens it. Next time you should give rust blueing a try, much more durable blue.
I just bought one that was also missing the takedown screw. I've purchased one, and now i know how to get it in the receiver. I also am look for the screw on the other side of the receiver. Someone buggered it up bad.
Most impressive video I’ve see on TH-cam. There is done and then there is done right. You are quite talented both in gun-finishing and video production. Looking forward to your remaining videos.
Thanks, but if I had to do it again, I might have gone with a browning process on the receiver because the metal alloy was different then the barrel and far more difficult to achieve uniformity. Not sure cold bluing was ever intended for a whole gun, unless it was for display only.
Just today we took one in from a PD property room. It's in rough shape. It even has the deflector shield that mounts on the trigger guard. I love 22's and have restored my fair share of them, but this one is in rough shape. Trying to figure out if I'd like to grab it and take a swing at trying to bring it back to life. My biggest issue is a work shop with the correct tools.
Your decision will depend more on your patience and motivation then your tools or shop space. I refurbished my first 22 pump rifle when I was only 14 and I did the whole project in my bedroom with only sandpaper and steel wool. The rifle turned out surprisingly well considering my limited resources and inexperience. But to get the bluing color consistent required redoing it several times until I perfected a decontamination procedure appropriate for my circumstances. I remember using Birchwood Casey for the cold bluing and Tung oil for the butt stock refinishing. But it was from that past experience 55 years ago that prompted me to try the techniques I used in this video, like spinning the barrel. There are scores of TH-cam videos on firearm restorations I strongly recommend watching before you start. There you can choose which techniques you might copy to fit you circumstances.
@@bdh503 I reblued a Marlin glenfield 100 22 using Birch wood Casey super blue. The barrel was brown with age {1960's} . Turned out beautiful.If you warm the barrel first and use denatured alcohol ,it gives a deep blue color.
Nice video and great techniques. Very informative. Can you link where you bought the bluing compounds or tell me where to get some. I am going to attempt to do a restoration on a model 24 myself. Got it from a farmer that found it in the rafters of a barn! It was so rusty that he was just going to throw it away!
I bought the Oxpho Blue from Amazon, but if I had to do it again I would have gotten it directly from Brownell because it would have been cheaper and faster. www.brownells.com/gunsmith-tools-supplies/metal-prep-coloring/metal-bluing/liquid-cold-bluing-chemicals/oxpho-blue--prod1072.aspx The Minwax Wipe-on polyurethane, I used for the stock, was available from a local Lowes. www.lowes.com/pd/Minwax-Wipe-On-Poly-Satin-Oil-Based-Polyurethane-Actual-Net-Contents-16-fl-oz/999914303 Thanks, Bruce

If you are going to refurbish the same model rifle I strongly recommend see my video in Part III. There are tips in assembly/disassembly that could be really helpful. Good luck.
Ahh give it a rest jeff , what the heck do you do with a gun thats worth nothing but parts otherwise , a real period correct refurbuish would cost 5 times what that gun would ever be worth & will never recover the cost anyway

Wow I am very impressed, I have one on my kitchen table right now trying to find out how to take off the butt stock. Thanks for your help.
Check out Part 3 which explains how to make a spanner socket for removing the stock's tubular spanner nut. Thanks

Nice job -looks like a lot of work. People don't realize these old guns can be made like new again.
I just bought one that was also missing the takedown screw. I've purchased one, and now i know how to get it in the receiver. I also am look for the screw on the other side of the receiver. Someone buggered it up bad.
I just use the wire wheel on my bench grinder works great much less work too
