Thanks to you, I got some good ideas on how to restore a weapon. I'm thinking of restoring a weapon soon. Thank you, great job!

Not sure if it's the same one I had back in the late 70's early 80's but I definitely remember loading it the same way. So much more fun than cap guns! Nicely restored, looks fantastic!

I have two of these...one silver and one blue (plus the target set-up)...the challenge is finding the little bbs which are different from other Daisy air guns. Nice work!

It looks like Bond's signature Walther PPK with a silencer when it's complete. Great restoration as always 👍

In my opinion, it looks more like the Ruger Mk II or III with Tokarev TT-33 lower frame assembly.

I still have my old bb and pellet guns from when I was a kid. I was taught to take care of them so they still look like new. They are over 20 years old 😆

Good job. Thank you for not doing all the slow motion stuff like so many restoration sites. 👍

I got one of these in great and working condition in some stuff that was given to me when my grandpa passed away. Hand no idea it was that old. Super stoked to learn about it.

Awesome restore!

A lot of work, job well done 👍

Amazing job!

Nice refurbishing efforts. It looks similar to an older Ruger Standard model 22 rim fire pistol. This is a perfect pistol to start a kid out with because being low power, you can teach gun control and muzzle control. Thumbs Up!

Спасибо большое за хороший ремонт)) Пистолет называется Daisy Model 118 Targeteer чем то на Walther Olimpia .22 похоже.

Estupenda restauracion por usted lograda en esta pistola Daisy BB vintage, respetos desde Venezuela💯💯👍👍🙏🙏💯💯

My uncle had a similar one, but it was a cap gun instead. You’ve done a magnificent job!!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Great work buddy

good job! you are really talented!

Eu pensei que fosse uma pistola de verdade e não de brinquedo , adorei a restauração.

You do really nice work and I enjoy your videos. Please consider putting some sort of sound deadening material on the underside of your steel work table. When you drop things on it or hammer things on it the resulting sound is very annoying.

This was made in my hometown!! Holy smokes that's awesome!

Very cool well done.

Never had mine apart like that ! What is the piston seal made of... leather ? Did you soak it in some sort of oil ? Normally Neatsfoot Oil works well with leather seals on normal piston airguns.

Cool man I have one of those too and they're fun

nice job 😁👍

Nice production and result! I question why the heated solution bluing method for the frame instead of just cold bluing you did for the rivets? It seemed like a lot of unnecessary work for the same result. It was cool to see all three types of bluing though. Congratulations!

@AcmeRestorations

It's not the same result. Real bluing creates an oxide layer that is harder and rust resistant. Cold bluing is just coloring. It's really only good for touch up. Thanks for watching.

I had a daisy 177 lever action pistol ! Doomsday devices in the hands of 14 year olds!

Well before the Gat Air Gun I had when I was a kid

Pilotwhale: Fantastic work! Where did you get the rubber seal on the plunger? Also, where did you get or make the abutment seal? I also noticed your plunger did not have the pipe-like extension that inserts from the plunger head into the shot tube, Any info.would be appreciated. I wish I had 5% of your skill. Thank you.

If you have to oil the parts anyway why would you not use a cold bluing solution?!? Much less work, less dangerous and less cumbersome. That's what I've used dozens of times with great results...

Cold blueing is just cosmetic. It's just for touch up, it's not actually blueing. Also I am trying to restore to the original contidion and this pistol was originally blued so I wanted to give it a try.

Genuine question, why the hell is this "for kids" that's dangerous, don't get me wrong I bet it was fun as hell, but I'm so concerned about the fact that this was meant for children.

@AcmeRestorations

2 жыл бұрын

It's not that dangerous. This is the first BB gun I have ever seen that you probably could NOT put your eye out with. It's super gutless. Also, kids back in the '30s were given more responsibilities and expected to be more responsible. Just look at Audie Murphy for example.

Sometimes I think the manufacturers really didn't think when they made things like these. Twelve feet is still enough to hurt someone.

It was made from 1937 to 1952. They didn't exactly prioritize user safety with toys back then. Lawn darts for example didn't even start getting banned until the 1990's and those were very dangerous.

You didn't do the most important part of a BB gun restore. Rehardening the spring. Looks nice but I had to downvote because it will be a weak shot now.
