    I enjoy your videos. I've spent 60 years on the gila a lot of it in the wilderness and I like the way you share where you are and what's going on this video with the zigzag trail that really brought back some memories. It's a long story but we had a 56 mile ride that day trying to take care of some mules that got trapped but I came out at the top of it just as the sunset and I walk down. I laid my horse. That's a that's a trail to say you've ridden. I enjoyed it. I appreciate your effort

    Heh Ty great video thanks . can you advise me please i have a browning nomad stalker 1 along the limbs it has lengthways splits in the shiny finish or I suppose the glass i cannot tell and have no experience so how do you know how far to sand the shiny finish and would polyurethane spray be okay to coat the limbs with ? I sanded and coated the riser with true oil which looks nice but have no idea about the limbs any advice would be really generous as I found no answer online so far . Thanks again for the great video Ty

  • @Makingitwild
    @Makingitwild19 күн бұрын

    @@deathfromabove9888 if the cracks are in the finish it’s no big deal. You want to sand evenly throughout the limb but you don’t want to get into the fiberglass too much because it can mess up the tiller of the limb or make a weak spot. Polyurethane works well on everything. If the crack is in the fiberglass a thin flexible glue can keep it from getting worse but it depends on which part of the limb. I hope it works out for you. Good luck.

    I did not expect to be blown away by this video. I really expected the opposite. First of all I must say that you are an extremely talented man and you did an outstanding job on this project. It sort of reminded me of how they probably did the work so long ago. I had to watch several YT videos before I took mine apart. Also had to watch videos for putting it back together again. You are brave. Great job. Your son watched you work on this gun so just imagine how special it will be to him someday. I have my father's 94 that he bought in 1948 and it is very special to me. I already let my son know that it belongs to him.

    Hey firearms are meant to be used not collecting dust. 👍👍 I shoot all my antiques including my WWII guns. I love Formbys tung oil finish, it used to be my go to wood finish for years until those dicks at minwax bought them out and shutdown the factory. Still think they should've kept it open and sold it under their name bc minwaxs tung oil finish absolutely blows, it will not harden up like formbys does. Made mistake of trying to use it the way I did formbys and it was still tacky over 6 months later in a shop kept at 40% humidity.

    Any year of the 30wcf guns can shoot modern 30-30 rounds. They are fairly low pressure rounds which that gun was designed for. The only 94 that would be in question would be the first year 1894 models that were actually still designed for a black powder cartridge. 1895 and beyond were designed for the smokeless cartridges.

    ty: Now I remember why I told you that something you stated was wrong. Chain saws are not allowed to be used in fire supression in wilderness areas, regardless! But my crews ( I was supervisor of the trails rehab in the Missionary Ridge Fire in the San Juans) and I could use ampho and kennapec (sp) explosives to remove hazard trees proximate to the trail corridors.

  • @Makingitwild
    @MakingitwildАй бұрын

    The way the policy is written is interpreted differently between districts. I agree that everyone should play by the same rules but fire crews use chainsaws all the time in the Gila to fight fires and clear the trail for access to the fire. (I’ve even packed chainsaws for them) They aren’t allowed to use them if they aren’t going to a fire. This is the same policy they use to land helicopters in the wilderness. I remember a few years ago they were going to clear some log jams in the weminuche and San Juan’s but this wasn’t about fires and it got shut down.
