It looks exaclty like a 170 year old gun that was just badly stored and not maintained during that time. Doubt it's been underground for even a single week.

You did an absolutely great job on this one.

hello, awesome job on this. There is one thing i would like to note. When using a rotary tool its better to use one with steel wool like wires and not inox ones. They will scratch the surface less and be better for the gun.

Это фиаско братан,а не реставрация.За пружины и скобу респект конечно.НО.Револьвер был никелирован,и в нетронутом виде выглядел интересней.

It may not be firable but it still became a nice piece of history. If you had a bit of knowledge as to if it was found where a battle happened or not, it would make that restoration even more interesting.

Was found in his grandpa's basement, probably. That thing was NEVER underground. Steel wouldnt look that good even after only 10 years in the ground.

Great restoration and you did a wonderful job restoring it as well!! Where was it found and what country are you from?? Enjoyed your video and I gave it a Thumbs Up

Acredito que pra essa arma era usada munições de pino , parabéns pelo trabalho ! Depois dessa restauração , essa arma ainda vai durar muitos anos .

Le Foucheaux gun. Black powder. Very nice.

Good luck finding pinfire ammo! There is a kit made for some pinfire calibers, French I think.

As always great! Very cool!!!

Love these old pinfire revolvers, nice work

Love the restoration, it would be cool if there is no music i guess, just the tool´s sound maybe?

Magnifique 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Nice 👌

You turned a boat anchor into a fine antique.

First, cool video

Would plating the items with something like nickel cover the pitting?

Watching this is like colourising a black and white photo.

Nice wall hanger but you should have roughed up the trigger guard a little

Great video, but why did you not clean inside the Baral?

i doubt it was in the ground, its in too good of condition, if it was in the ground, you would see serve rust pitting.

@@clambroth1923 maybe so, but what youre seeing isnt consistent with being buried in the ground.. there are plenty of videos out there with relics found in the ground and get restored, you will see the difference… this gun doesnt have the characteristics of being buried that long, it would have major pitting, more deterioration.. this gun doesnt have that.

Old revolvers like this are usually blued. I think they were first invented in Belgium in the 1800’s this design lead us to modern day centre fire cartridge revolvers

No, these kind of revolvers, made from the 1860's to the 1890's, and, it's true in great numbers in Belgium, are inspired by the French Lefaucheux of 1858. A much rarer and highly sought after weapon

No níquel... ?

Almost looks like it could handle REALLY low power rounds.

Name of the revolver

first look …. old rusted gun!!! when you done…. piece of metal with some wood!

Restoration means it can be fired again. Horrible finish, try nickel plating.

That was not laying in the ground for 70 years. Always tell the truth

This gun was used in ww1 and is not 170 years old. Still good video though 👍
