The people in the video have a lot of skill but it made me cringe when they broke out the sander.

Watched the video and never saw a sander? But it was impressive how nice it looked.

I love the Phillips head screws on a older gun.
Doesn't the guy own a flat plate for sanding/polishing flat parts.
I guess that's Bubbas mark of fame, rounded screw hole and parts that were once flat are now rounded.

Oh yes i see what your talking bout . Definitely a lighter slower approach would give better results. I could never imagine doing this.

A gross lack of knowledge the "expert you tubers" has caused me to avoid most of them like the plague . Knowledge is very important and lack of it can get you in trouble .
I wasn't that impressed with his restoration skills at all .

When he used the screwdriver to remove the bullet from the bore I threw up in my mouth.

There are some real goofs on you tube. I hate getting sucked into a video made by a guy that thinks he is a expert and actually has no skill or knowledge at all. It only takes about 30seconds to see the guy is a goof but you waste 3 minutes weeding them out. I don't know why they fill the need to put there video on line. Guns aren't the only subject the Bubbas are proud of. Just something you got to put up with because there are guys who are experts that put some good stuff on line.

That would work great on rusty old hand tools.

I might have missed it, but looks to me like he now has an in-the-white Webley that’s going to start rusting again right away.

The one handed flip-closed tags him as a real expert.
