My channel is full of restoration projects, taking military surplus firearms in bad condition, and preserving them for future, as well as making them functional again. But I don't always buy stuff that's in bad shape. In this video I look at two recent acquisitions, a rifle and a pistol, and show what I look for when buying, as well as how I inspect and clean them.
The rifle is a Belgian Model 1889/36 Mauser chambered in 7.65x53mm.
The pistol is a Spanish Star Modelo Super chambered in 9mm Largo.
