Winchester Hotchkiss Restoration - Part 1 (Disassembly)
In this video, I'm fixing some wrecked factory signs on this beautiful rifle and as the client didn't know how to disassemble his Hotchkiss, I prepared a little tutorial!
Please don't get confused, this is model 1879, not 1883. Thank you for pointing that out.

When the whole world goes bolt-action, but you're so cavalry that you can't give up the saddle ring. :D
..have a great year in '21..
Good to see you back
Excellent work!
Красивый образец стрелкового оружия! А год выпуска- какой? Сильно его время побило! Похоже на старую американскую школу хотя возможно ошибаюсь. У нас просто мало сведений о стрелковом оружии из Америки! Хотя конмтруктивно- американское оружие очень простое и надёжное! У нас тут в Европе больше ценят Маузера, и ещё Czech - zbroevka! Красиво человек- делает- профессионально! Уровень- супер! Super! Приятно посмотреть всегда на работу-МАСТЕРА!
Wow! I nearly schitt my pants when you filed off the barrel stamping, but wow again - great work!
That was phenomenal work right there, I'm impressed!
I've always wanted one of these guns the 1879 version is beautiful in my opinion
Yeah, glad you are back! Didn't get a notification!

@@MastersOfCraftOfficial I read that the reason they went to the two piece stock was because these would crack very easily. Great job.
You’re back!
Hey thats interesting
Outstanding
Oh you're back , looks like you got some new tools as well
Finally another gun video!!
The first prototype of this was made out a surplus chassepot carbine , certainly in France
Great video! Do you have any plans on posting a video on your other channel?
6:02 Nice to see that 1879 Reichsrevolver right there.
After you boiled it just curious did you use fine steel wool inside the barrel and action to remove the surface rust like you carded on the outside?
Why not laser all the way? I suppose it look more authentic if hand engraved?
Wow a new video!? I must admit I didn't expect to see any new videos from you ever again. I thought it had become another abandoned channel here on youtube - I'm glad I was wrong. :)

@@MastersOfCraftOfficial Yeah I know youtube makes it difficult for channels that do firearms and weapons, but you did other kind of videos in the past, with a different content, have you considered going back and do that kind of videos again? :)

That's a total nonsense but not surprised considering the world we are living nowadays. What a pity! continue the good job. Ans why not like suggested making videos with no weapon where you get paid and keeping the rest for pleasure 😉.

@@MastersOfCraftOfficial Okay I didn't know you're professional gunsmith/restorer, and I can see that would be a problem. On the upside you have a lot of work, and can provide for yourself and your family - many people do not have that fortunate luck in these cursed times, with that damn virus and all. Stay safe my friend, and I hope to see more videos in the near future. :)
👍👍
👍🏻👊🏻
Thank god 2020 didn't claim you too!
What metal filler do you use that accepts blueing?
Welcome back Hows the cat and pony ??
I thought the 1883 model had a two piece stock? Are you sure this isn't the first or second model?
Hey Andre, do you have any Updates on your Cat and your pony? I am curious how they are doing :)
I have one of those but it has crack in the stock where you grip it.

Have you decided to become a gunsmith Andre?
Awwwwwwww yussss!
Andre why do you make so little videos? Everyone loves your content, but it is just not frequent enough.

Now you have to restore the rest of the gun as it doesn't look as good as your work
