Hi Folks, Im still waiting on my licence to come through but I handed in a family heirloom during the Amnesty last year that’s waiting for me at the local gun shop. It’s an old shotgun of my grandfathers, its got no branding on it and it certainly needs a huge service and probably rebluing. It’s a side by side, break action. Problem with it is there’s an issue with the spring inside the locking mechanism and it will only lock if you do it by hand, obviously not very safe.
The gun shop who has it has taken a look at it and claims the can’t get all the screws out to fix it, I’d really like to try and get this to a useable state to honour my Pop. Does anyone know of any decent gunsmiths in the Canberra region or Sydney as I’d be happy to travel to bring this gun back to life. Thanks in advance.
