Hey Thomas. Welcome from Nebraska. Ditto on the collection. Where are you and send pics of rifles please.
Remember, it's not how many guns you have. It's how many bullets you have.

Welcome to the Henry Family from south central Oklahoma. It is a family... Jump right in and post, ask questions, share pics. You know, guns, trucks, cars, fish. We might pick on you, like family. But it will be in fun. You know: "You call THAT a fish, round here WE call something that size, BAIT." :lol:

There are forums for everything. Rifles, Handguns, Gardens, Tractors... if there isn't one for what you want to talk about... post it in the lounge. 8-)
Just remember it's family and we don't talk about religion, politics, or things we wouldn't say in front of the kids. :lol:
You can tell a lot about the character of a man...
by the way he treats those who can do nothing for him.

I don't look back at the things I can no longer do, I just look forward to the things I still can.

Welcome from the Tualatin Valley.

I hope the version of FLITZ that was used was ammonia free. Over time the ammonia will dull the brass and require more frequent buffing to keep the brass shiny. Now that you have it nice and shiny, buff it with some Renaissance Wax for a longer lasting shine.
