I stripped a manky mk1 Airsporter to have a go at home reblueing, The parts were wrapped in kitchen roll and placed in a carrier bag, At the same time I stripped and refinished the stock...

When the action was reblued and ready for the rebuild there seemed to be the rearsight and loading tap missing, I searched high and low but couldn't find them, I thought they accidentally gone in the bin with dirty kitchen roll that i'd used to clean the parts of grease and oil

Around two years later I went in my box of stock refinishing stuff and guess what I found??!!

The bits were there, On several occasions I saw the partly built action and stock, It got me down so much that I almost put the lot in the bin!

The elation when I found them almost better than the first time I discovered... er... Best not go there!!
