Hi
I've had this Camargue a year or two and it had problems!!
Some numpty had tried welding the Ally scope mount to the Steel cylinder
This morning i set about getting the blobs of (what looked like bird carp!) off the cylinder, obviously i knew the finish was going to be murdered but there was no other option....
Before...

Unfortunately, i still have to source (or repair!) a new cocking lever as the end part is missing
I think i may fire up the lathe and make something to cover the end of the barrel where it is turned down to a smaller dia...
While i'm in the mood i might just make a start on the airsporter Stutzen

How have you reblued it?
If you want to improve it I've got a proper blacking rig, stip it down and I'll polish and black it gratis?

Hi Richard
I used some of the gun blue cream, it's not very good but is a sight better than leaving it silver!!!
If i send it to you, you'll have to take some cash for doing it
EDIT- Forgot to say, i'll need to repair the cocking lever first as it's broken (end is missing!)
here's how it looks from above..

I like the old air arms guns so I wont take any cash from you, send a donation to H4H for me
The cocking lever is awkward though I think you'll need to find someone with a scrapper that said if its reblacked that could be a real nail of a scrapper...
Let me know
