Finally! A magnet fisherman who actually keeps the guns and restores them. Instant subbed! Keep up the good work! Excellent restoration!
Thank you very much we appreciate you watching and your support
@@TheKinzlerBros I’d say this was very entertaining and interesting. Glad the gun didn’t explode in your face but in general the Ruger Blackhawk is a very strong action.
I'm happy too. I think that usually the guns are tied to someone else and that is why people can't keep them.
True
I thought exactly the same thing, instant sub, greetins from Brazil
Looks like a genuine find and restoration, unlike the 95% on YT where the screws miraculously come out like a charm and the reassembly happens as if no material ever deforms when left to nature.
Thank you very much we appreciate it, ya most of the guns on UA-cam were not underwater for years, thanks for watching
I once saw a video where plastic parts had rust lol
Well, the main thing is to show the restoration process, so it doesn't matter that was this gun under water or not
@@markolysynchuk5264 I'm not an expert, but as a viewer I do value authenticity.
another reason why when I watch like general restoration, I only watch 'My Mechanics"
Tip from someone who likes to restore guns. You did a great job bringing it back to life.
Well that is actually a nice thing for you to say a lot of people really hated on me for this restoration but I like to specify that I am a total rookie when it comes to restoring firearms I have a lot to learn and I’m willing to learn I just make a few mistakes along the way that’s kind of how we all go about doing new things thank you for watching
@@TheKinzlerBros I do not understand why anyone would hate on you for bringing that Ruger back to life. You did good.
@@TheKinzlerBros you did good.. some are to lazy to do it ...I love guns so much even if it was brike I'd use it as decor
While some may refer to it as "The 5 round" rule it's actually the "Don't rest the hammer on a live round" rule. Loading 5 is just as dangerous as 6 if you're not on the empty chamber. Awesome that you have an old school Ruger for a fraction of the cost + some elbow grease. Great video!!
That is a great point, Ya we love it, thanks for watching Jimmy!
Saw that as well. When loading. Load one. Skip one. Load four. Bring gun to full cock and lower hammer on to empty chamber. Which if u did the procedure correctly will be the aligned chamber.
Not a single six but a Blackjack, three-screw (before 1973).
@@TheKinzlerBros nice find When turning the cylinder, always have the hammer resting completely in the half cock notch/position . That way the cylinder bolt (that locks the cylinder) will be all the way down inside the frame, and will not scratch a ring around the cylinder and beat up your cylinder notches. Then bring hammer all the way to full cock and pull the trigger while lowering the hammer. Also keeps the gun in time. This applies to Colts SAA as well as Ruger three screw single actions. Blackhawks are tough guns. Congratulations!
Pointing it all and any way possible then hitting it with a hammer though, cool! 👍🏻
What a great find! What a relief the gun wasn't tied to anything and the police gave it back to you guys! That restore turned out awesome!
Yes it was, thank you very much we appreciate you! Thanks for watching
You do wonder who leaves a loaded gun with two empties in water.
Invest in a heated ultrasonic cleaner, you will LOVE IT ! This Ruger was a prime candidate for a good Cerokote . Great job !
We will, thanks for the advice, ,ya we are learning new things all the time, thanks for watching
Best restoration I’ve ever seen. Really enjoyed someone actually talking and explaining things
Thank you very much Joshua, we really appreciate your support, thanks for watching
Good demonstration of taking a single six completely apart and putting it back together.
thanks for the compliment, and for watching Larry
I think that was a Blackhawk not a single six. It looked to center fire nir rim fire
#i love that shr t
@@tbjtbj4786 was definitely a Ruger Blackhawk chambered in .357 Magnum as opposed to a Single six, I know as i own 1 of each, but also says it right on the frame where you can see during disassembly.
Excellent job ! 👍
Thank you very much for watching
@@TheKinzlerBros You're welcome :)
I love watching these videos of weapon restorations, mainly the old types used in western movies
awesome thanks for watching our video we appreciate that
Quick smith tip if you want a better blue try slightly warming the metal with a torch or heat gun I know it says cold blue but a lil heat makes the blueing agent take deeper and better
yes i saw this in another video but i do not own a heatgun or blow dryer
@@TheKinzlerBros - Try your wife's hair dryer.
Yeah, get the heat gun on the cold blue after a couple of minutes and liven it up after a good heat up, with WD40 I find works too, do that a couple of times then a good wash in bicarb and dry it before a coat of Ballistol
Much better than a straight cold blue.
I own a ruger blackhawk in .357 mag. To me its one of THE best revolvers to use.
Yeah absolutely it is a great revolver thanks for watching
Finally found someone that restores the guns they find in the waters. Definitely subbing.
We are happy that you have joined the team, thanks for watching
This is absolutely incredible guys!! What a crazy find, especially on the first toss out at the reservoir! And then to be able to get it back after turning it into the cops, which was the right thing to do, after basically half a year. Then to top it all off, you guys did a fantastic job showing the restoration process and the gun turned out absolutely beautiful. Super proud of what your channel is turning into and can’t wait to see more of these restoration videos with finds you guys pull up while out magnet fishing! Also, a huge congrats on 10,000 subscribers and the over 1 million views on the channel!!! Much love from me and I will continue to be here to support you guys and join you on more magnet fishing adventures in the future! Yeet!!!
thanks Jesse i hope you own a kayak because we are going to yak the rivers now too because they will have stuff all throughout because of floods and people live on the river
Beautiful restoration of the old revolver
Thank you very much!
UA-cam recommended this video, so I watched it. Almost couldn't wait to see the comments - but I did. So much of this work caused me mental pain. Take some time, watch some other videos. I'll be interested to see if you get some additional gunsmithing skills as time goes by. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching Don and not being to critical of the video. we are learning and getting better thanks for the comment
What a sweet find! I have a security six so I know these were some of the best pistols Ruger ever released. As its a Ruger, you can load 'hot' loads without any worry versus a colt pistol. Great find!
Ya we are very happy with it, they are definitely great revolvers, thanks and thanks for watching
Just what the world needs: a restored GUN!
Thanks for watching, It's a revolver not the one's you see on the news
That is an old model blackhawk made in 1969. Good find. I have one from 1967 its the pride of my collection. Edit I only made it halfway before looking up the serial number for the year it was made. Lo and behold at the end you guys already knew that. 🤣
awesome that is cool, thanks for commenting
I to have a 3 screw flattop in 44mag. Manufactured in 1960. My Dad bought it brand new at the local western auto store for $80 in 1962 and ordered a holster from Edward Boland leather works in Hollywood Cali. It's is also my pride and joy. I have a tank of a revolver I also have a family heirloom to pass to my youngest daughter. ( she loves to hunt, fish and shoot ).
@@davidnice9216 - I have a Super Blackhawk that I bought new in 1965, and it is much nicer than the two New Model Blackhawks that I also own. The Super Blackhawk used to be available with a brass grip frame, and they also sold them separately. I found 2 in a store for $16.50 each and bought both. When I get to it, one is going on my Super Blackhawk and he other may get modified to fit one of my newer Blackhawks.
@My Dixie Wrecked - The first time I fired my .44 Mag Super Blackhawk it made me realize that I needed to learn how to handload. The lightest load in the handloading manuals recoils like a .22 RF, and there are many loads between minimum and maximum.
The Redhawk is double action. The single action Super Blackhawk has a very long, non checkered grip that simply rolls back in your hand. I added a set of Herretts Shooting Star grips which made the grip even longer. Of course I got the non checkered grips.
Double action revolvers used to be popular with the police because of the use of speed-loaders, but there is no need for a magnum hunting revolver to be double action.
I hope you get the tools and knowledge you need to do this all properly. Restoration is definitely an art, and it's good to see you gaining experience and listening to wiser men in the comments section here.
Oh agreed completely I want to get good at this I want to do it right and I want to make really nice restoration videos if people know more things about it than me I want to learn I am a rookie I acknowledge that and I wanna learn so I’m doing more research listening to people that know more than me and I am getting better thank you very much for the nice comment
Thanks for rescuing this firearm
Thank you very much for watching
Amazing to see all the changes. My favorite handgun that I own is a 357 New Vaquero with cherrywood grips. This is like my guns grand-daddy. It's a lot easier to disassemble the newer models! Great video!
Thank so much for watching
@@TheKinzlerBros Thanks for the great content!
I’m happy that a classic like this that had been neglected for so long can actually fire again. I love single action revolvers, especially Ruger being one of my favorite brands. I got a New Vaquero in .45 LC and I would love to have a Blackhawk 357 Magnum/9mm Convertible at some point. This Blackhawk is back in action and that’s a blessing right there. By the way, being the 3-screw model, they don’t have the transfer bar safety like the 1973 and newer ones do. Another trick to loading it, like I do with my Heritage Rough Rider is load one, skip the second chamber and load the remaining 4, that way the hammer rests on an empty chamber.
Thank you very much for the awesome comment and all the cool knowledge that you gave to me thanks for watching
I really appreciate that you're restoring something actually in need of restoration, instead of something that was buried in your backyard for a few months like I suspect many other restoration videos. That alone earned my subscription.
Ya there are a lot of fake restorations, thanks for the support
Nice work! You took a rusty, old pos ruger and turned it into an old pos ruger.
Yup and it was free and I have made plenty off this video so it was still worth it for the experience. But thanks for watching.
@@TheKinzlerBros the parts were free were they? that's awesome
Great restoration - always so satisfying to bring something “back to life” rather than just buy a new one 👍
thank you very much Beskar
As long as the Transfer bar is functional, you can load six full house MAGNUM loads in that thing!!!
Ruger's ROCK!!!
I have a GP 100, AR556, Mini 14, and an LC9S...
All Rugers...
All well BUILT!!!
It doesn't have a transfer bar its a 1969 old model 3 screw blackhawk. ya rugers are great, sounds like you have a good collection going. thanks for watching
@@TheKinzlerBros damn...
i noticed the 3 screws... I thought they had transfer bars too!!!
As much as I LOVE RUGER... I don't have a 10/22...
I DO have 3 Marlin 60's and a 70 Papoose in 22 LR!!!
@@TheKinzlerBros Yep... It was 73 when they did the safe thang!!!
I didn't realize that!!!
I've been waiting for this video for a good minute! It was totally worth the wait. Thanks so much for the content. Waiting for more.
i know i was waiting and working on it for awhile, thanks for your patience
Someone really *did* lose their gun in a "boating accident!"
Ya it is very possible that was the scenario. thanks for watching B. Santos
Probably used in a murder and tossed. Police can only run the serial to see if it was reported stolen
I don't see what's so unusual. That's what happened/will happen to all of mine.
Mine too.
One shot fired out of six seems to me like they only needed the one shot and then ditched the gun
Looks like a legit find unlike most vids out there where the screws look new and come out like butter .
This was found in our Hometown lake, Thank you very much and thanks for watching
The single six actually does have a transfer bar safety, otherwise you would see the firing pin as an integral part of the hammer. It's perfectly safe to load 6 rounds.
Transfer bar safeties were not included on the earlier single action pistols. Ruger has a program where you can send an original one to them and they will upgrade to a transfer bar safety system for free. They will also send you the original hammer parts back to you.
@@jaseun1 And he loaded it wrong so only putting 5 in was pointless. Half cock, load, skip, load x4, cock, drop hammer.
@@jaseun1 When he cocks it, the hammer is flat. That was just my observation. I've never owned an older model, but I own many inbetween and new ones and the 2 minutes of googling I did said one feature of the single six was the transfer bar safety.. At least he was aware of the 5 round rule at all, I was actually surprised at that alone.
I hope they will do that but when I contacted them about parts for this firearm they didn’t have any and told me they couldn’t help me
Yes I did a load it wrong because it was the first time I have ever loaded a revolver that’s how you learn
I would have assumed those rounds were still live, and acted accordingly.
Well how would you have gotten them out? Please not cylinder is stuck completely. Hammer is stuck as well
Nah gunpowders fine it just like pulling out a tooth
They did the best they could given the circumstance. They were stuck in there and there is no feasible way to get them out aside from that way. It's not like a muzzle loader where you can remove a nipple and dump the powder out. There was literally no other option.
Just hit em with a hammer it'll be fine
@@TheKinzlerBros if you soaked the gun in WD-40, kerosine, diesel fuel, or other light petroleum product, which I believe you did, that will deactivate the primer!
That will make the cartridges safe to drive out!
I love these restoration videos. This man knows a lot about guns and restoration. Good Work!!
Thanks Wayne we really appreciate that, thanks for watching and for the positive feedback
nice job ! saving a piece of history !
thnk you very much for the nice comment, and for watching Matt
Brandon & Austin, congratulations on a great find. You fellas did an awesome job restoring that Old Model Ruger. Unless the owner sent that handgun back to Ruger for the upgrade, all Three Screw models came from the factory minus a "Transfer Bar".
Three screws, three clicks when the hammer is pulled back. Two screws, two clicks.
I have five Rugers, three of which are Old Models that I bought back in the mid 1960's. Ruger firearms have always been dependable and, their Customer Service is outstanding in my personal opinion.
May I offer a suggestion? Any of the good firearm supply stores out there, Brownells, MidSouth, Midway USA, offer great tools made for maintaining firearms. A good set of Hollow ground screwdrivers and a set of pin punches will help assure that you don't "bugger" any screw heads. I learned the hard way after messing up the slots on one of my first firearms.
Again, congratulations on a great find, I'm envious. The .357 mag is one caliber I don't own.
You did a great job, that Old Three Screw will be treasured for many years to come.
Stan
Thanks so much and yea I agree with the screws. I am buying to me for our next restorations project. Yea people keep saying you can load six then i tell them it does not have a transfer bar. Thanks for the really nice Comment
Yup a person that makes a great video of a gun u got back. God Bless you
Thank you very much, thanks for watching
Damn Brandon, you did a bang up job on this revolver. You definitely have a talent for this procedure. I’d keep this video for future screenings. Excellent presentation. Congratulations! 😉👍🇺🇸
well thank you very much for the compliment
Great restoration. Big fan of western style revolvers. Loved the Clint Eastwood spaghetti westerns.
Would love to own my own western style revolver but where I live we can't own a pistol.
Thank you very much for watching and for commenting
Very cool restoration. My grandfather left me this same gun and the .22 caliber. Very fun to watch
Thank you, ya they are very cool guns. Thanks for watching
Great job on the restoration that’s absolutely a great find. Keep up the good work.
Thank you so much we really appreciate that
Gran hallazgo, excelente restauracion, muy buena arma, muy buen video. 💪💪🇺🇾🇺🇾🇺🇾🇺🇾
Thank you very much it was quite the challenge we were novice gunsmith errs but we turned out to get it done and be able to fire it which is awesome thank you
It's beautiful. I love revolvers like the Colt Peacemaker and this inspires me.
Thank you very much we appreciate it and it brings us joy to inspire others, thanks for watching
It was so cool to see the finished product shoot. Great video guys! 🔥
Thanks buddy, ya it was awesome to bring it back to life!
Send the restoration video to the Police force that sent it back to you.
Watch this at 1.5x speed, thank me later.
K, thanks for the tip. thanks for watching
24 hors in evaporust, amazing transformation. Before pulling it apart them put it all back when apart. Great vid!!!
Yes! Thank you!
That's a seriously good find! I would absolutely love to own one of those
Ya it is an awesome revolver, we are so happy how it turned out, hope you find one someday. thanks for watching
I would've kept the original Grips, just scrape the finish with a knife and then put some oil in them
I recommend mark novak's conservation videos
I can agree with you on that I just already had the grips so I just went with them but that’s a good point thank you
@@TheKinzlerBros the new grips are fine too, it's just that they don't quite Match with the wear on the reciever
You still did a good job
Exactly! Mark is awesome.
Fun! Some would say restoring a gun like that ruins the value for collectors, but watching this restoration is just so satisfying!
Thank you very much and not on this one restoring it doesn't ruin the value thanks for watching.
@@TheKinzlerBros Well, it's cool to watch. It was just beaten into me as a young man "Don't restore old guns." But when you guys are done, you actually have a gun that can be used. Fun stuff!
Do not let Mark Novak see this video!
Well i hope he does not disapprove to much, thanks for watching
The wire wheel. Was the most cringe that I have experienced please never do that again
I was literally thinking the EXACT same thing. I just sat here watching this going omg. Firstly, there's the working on a loaded gun when you CLEARLY aren't experienced enough to do so. Secondly, the absolute DESTRUCTION of the integrity of that firearm. I'm really sad watching this. And to the other individual who claims Mark Novak doesn't know what he's doing. My only response is...🤣🤣🤣. Ok, show us how it's done. Please, by all means. 🤦♀️
You can load all six safely it being a single action and using a transfer bar makes it drop safe
Yep all true statements this gun does not have a transfer bar yet thanks for watching
Old model Rugers, like this one, have an action that is NOT safe for 6 rounds in the cylinder. Only new models are safe as you describe.
As someone said this is a three screw Ruger (see the 3 screw in the grip frame) which means it is pre- transfer bar so not safe to carry with round under the hammer unless you have it modified.
Check and see if it's possible to index the trigger between two the rounds in other words manually cycle the cylinder to halfway between two rounds and (very very carefully) drop the hammer controlling it with your thumb. That should keep the hammer in a safe position to carry six. Now if it won't stay there then I'm wrong and don't listen to me!
Edit: Should go without saying but now that I think about it - try this empty or with dummy rounds or snap caps first!
@@TheKinzlerBros does it have a hammer mounted firing pin? If not transfer bar is being used
Watched again, thanks ❤
Thank you!
Had that Gun been in pristine condition you would have never got it back from the sheriff some deputy would had it at home in his collection
LOL Police are the same the whole world over
i agree with that terry
In NJ they would have NEVER given you back that gun.
True story. I work for a public works dept. Ive foubd 4 firearms. First 2 I turned in. Never seen em again. The next two I reatored after having a Leo friend run the numbers
can confirm. guy stole my dads ruger gp100, and he turned himself in. gun was put in evidence....and went missing.
That's so cool the PD gave it back to you. The way people treat gun owners now days they could of easily said they needed to destroy it to keep on good terms with that public. Nice gun...nicer fixed up 🙂
thank you for watching! it was great to get it back from the police
Who throws a firearm into the drink? Only one good answer, a criminal trying to hide a weapon used in the commission of a crime. Evidentially the police couldn't tie it to a local crime, and no ballistic test could've been conducted by a forensic lab because they couldn't do a test firing. All they did was run the number and it came back clean.
@@michaeljones9255 someone might have dropped it off their boat and the current brought it close to the dock. But who knows im just speculating
Most gun owners deserve the criticism. They think because they have a gun they can do anything they want.
@@zuestoots5176 Most? Nahh most of us are common sense people but are there a few knuckleheads sure
I'm not too into the magnet fishing shorts where people call the police every time they find anything that could be remotely considered dangerous and look for drama when the police tells them to stop bothering them with bs...
Actually restoring a beautiful old gun is a different story, my respect to you!
Ya I agree, thank you very much we appreciate it! Thanks for watching
“.....here at our small little range.....” behind him the camera sees that to his back is literally in the middle of nowhere as far as the eyes can see.
yes well it is a make shift range which is not a legitimate range since people totally ruined the one we did have by shooting everything and vandalizing it and not respecting it they took it away from the whole public, of course the actions of the few irresponsible ruin it for everyone else. so it sucks. thanks for watching
This is amazing! Bravo!✌😊🇮🇹
Wow thank you so much for watching
I have exact model. I like it because I can fancy being Clint Eastwood... Love Ruger, decent prices , makes fabulous guns.
Very cool, I agree with everything you said, Thanks for watching we appreciate it!
Idk if anyone else commented this but that’s a Ruger it has a transfer bar. You can load all 6 and hit the hammer with a hammer and it won’t fire. The old style of .45 has a firing pin on the hammer so you would only load 5. Fill it to the brim boys
Its a old model so it doesn't have a transfer bar, thanks for watching
@@TheKinzlerBros That rule of 5 in the chambers is for when you carry it around, it is normal to load 6 while at the range. The one in my night stand is loaded to 6 also as it will only be used in an emergency.
@@lambastepirate Not to mention, they didn't load them in the right sequence to get the empty chamber under the hammer when they started shooting. Bam! Bam! Bam! CLICK Bam! Lol, that serves no purpose whatsoever. Cool video anyway.
@@MichaelPoage666 Yea I noticed it but plenty others did and they had told him how it should be done so I didn't bother with it.
Very impressive job my friends I remember seeing that magnet fishing video a while back of you guys finding that gun and always wondered if you were ever going to get it back but you all did an awesome job cleaning and restoring it and if I were you I would leave the original grips on there Just for kicks now all you need is a quick draw holster for it
thanks so much for watching
Most restoration videos are voiceless unlike yours but I like it. It's the right amount and to the point. Good work. Love it.
Ya we have started to do minimal talking in our new videos. thank you very much and thanks for watching
"It's not very corrosive to the metal"
"The gripframe has lost it's integrity and is now missing"
Hahahaa
It’s cast to be expected
I’ve seen cleaners like that , not aggressive or corrosive but don’t leave it on very long it eats some metals it’s just a soap.
Ya that metal was cheap on the grip frame. we left it in just a little to long
The Kinzler Bros Be aware, that these materials, even if they stay together after the bath in that substance, can loose a substantial amount of stability. That could be extremely dangerous in this situation. Imagine the frame breaking in your hand when you shoot. That stuff gets brittle super fast. Stay safe ✌🏻have a good one.
The Kinzler Bros Oh and if it’s cast Material, the pores of the material are big. So the chemicals COULD sit in the pores after cleaning and slowly attack the material even further! It may look stable first but could get more brittle after a while. ✌🏻
Cowboy loading for non-transfer-bar single-actions: load one, skip one, load four. When you lower the hammer, it will be over the empty cylinder space.
awesome tip thank you for watching as well Dan
Yeah, we watch hickock 45 too.
Awesome job. I love those old guns.
Thanks, ya they are sweet! thanks for watching
Alec knows how a gun, doesn’t, work. Prison for Alec . Nice find tho
Alright buddy, thanks for watching
Great job! Im surprised the sheriffs dept. gave it back to you.
Yes I was surprised as well it was awesome
I've watched thousands of magnet fishing, gun restoration, and police videos; I've NEVER seen one where the police gives a gun back. That just blew my mind!!! (I think they keep them for themselves, but that's besides the point) I'm just glad you got yours back.
@@abnpthfdr2934 If it was in good shape someone at the PD would have kept it. :D
She's alive She's alive.....nice weapon
Thank you very much And she is alive and doing awesome
@@TheKinzlerBros
Truly a treat to see a weapon come from the grave and get treated with such respect with knowledgeable hands good luck with it and I hope you find more to restore
that is not a single 6. the ruger single 6 is a 22lr. that is a blackhawk 357 magnum.
oh very cool thanks for the info
It is a single action 6 shooter. Available in all a wide variety of calibers.
@@naterobinson2412 You don't know what you are taking about and 50 people have already replied and attested to the fact that that is not a single six.
Go on the ruger website and see for yourself.
Single 6 is a 22lr or 22mag
Blackhawk is offered in 45 Colt 41 mag and 357 mag
Super blackhawk is 44 mag.
I own a single 6 22lr and a blackhawk 357 mag. THE FRAME SIZES ARE DIFFERENT so they have different names.
@@jimlacefield7176 a single action revolver is offered in many different calibers. The “single six” model is a rim fire hand gun. Ruger, as well as other manufactures carry many calibers in the single action function. Maybe that cleared up what I was saying. I didn’t say it was/wasn’t a single 6.
Also, great video.
Great episode of ‘This Ol Murder Weapon’ 😁
thank you so much Jim, i hope to see your comments again on the channel
Good job, my respect to you.
Thanks we appreciate it!
If you're gonna shoot it immediately after loading, there is no point in leaving an empty carry-safe chamber. Good job on the resto. I love my old model Single six .22 lr/mag.
Ya that is a good point, thanks. that's awesome. thanks for watching
However, if you’re going to load five, load one, skip one, load four and bring the hammer to full cock. Then when you lower the hammer, it will be on an empty chamber. Nice restoration, by the way.
EvapORust works really good for safely cleaning metal and getting rid of that pesky rust. That way you won't damage the metal with a wire wheel. Other than that it was a great video fellas! 👍 🇺🇲
Thanks for the tips, we have used evaporust in the past we just didn't on this one. thanks for watching
@@TheKinzlerBros A lot of firearm restoration videos fail to show their audience a test fire after the restoration, so good on u guys for showing us a test fire!
I love doing restoration on old guns. the first one i did come out about like this one the more you do the better you will get. nice work
That’s exactly how I see it of course I’m an amateur at doing it I’m getting better as I go make a mistakes but that’s when you learn and you also learn from the tips that people give you along the way and it helps a lot I appreciate you watching

This cat needs to watch Anvil! Never wire wheel a firearm!
Ya we have made mistakes but, its part of learning. thanks for watching
Anvil is on the Mark Novak channel, here on YT. Keep up the good work 👍
@@TheKinzlerBros That is so very true! I have definitely made a few, well...several, myself. As you said, its all part of the process of learning. I attempted to install the paddle/anit-rattle mag release on my HK-91 and have done a horrific job of it. Now it needs a competent gunsmith to fix my mistake.
Nice job cleaning up the gun, brothers! Another one for your collection.
thats right P.K. thanks for watching
Just for keeping that ruger and restoring it you get a subscriber. Keep it up!
Thank you very much we appreciate the support, thanks for watching
Very interesting video. You are correct that it's not safe to carry six rounds in this 3 screw old model. Many were upgraded to add a transfer bar safety after a lawsuit against Ruger but this one has not been modified. The dead giveaway is the flat face of the hammer. The modified one is notched. Ruger will upgrade it for free I you are so inclined. They might even tune it up for you while they're at it. Great video. Liked and subscribed.
wow thanks so much Scott for the info and for supporting us
How old do you reckon the gun is bud
Found the serial number 1972
Don't do the so called free transfer safety bar upgrade, it'll greatly diminish the value of the gun something that RUGER doesn't bother too mention.
@@stevestarr5968 That is some good information. Actually there is a lot of really good info. in these comments.
I was surprised by the sound of the shots, is it just me or isn't it very loud? 🙃 Great job guys 🙌
Ya we only had .38's at the time that is why it was so quiet, thanks for watching
@@TheKinzlerBros Those cartridges looked to be too short to be 38's. I was thinking WTH are you loading in that gun. They looked to be 38 S&W rounds.
Another very beautiful and careful restoration. What a gift that gun would make!!!
Thank you very much, we appreciate you, thanks for watching
It.s amazing how this guy finds a 150 years old gun and is able to undo all the screws on it, and I work on a 10 years old car and I break half the bolts I try to undo! 😉🤭😂😂
I said you to say but this gun isn’t that old we have a shotgun that is over 100 years old but I couldn’t get the screws out of it anyway I appreciate you watching
It seems to me everyone that buys a Dremel, see’s every task as a task that needs a Dremel. It really doesn’t.
I know now that I don’t need to use a Dremel but at the time I was still learning very new to doing these types of videos and taking on these projects thank you very much for watching
I wrote this comment with my Dremel
I love this revolver!! amazing work guys!
Me too, thank you very much!
Check to see if there are slight dimples or indentations on the cylinder between each chamber
Some single actions have them where you can rest the hammer between chambers by gently pulling back the hammer slightly enough to turn, setting it in that in-between spot then very carefully sitting the hammer there. It acts as a "safety" of sorts so hammer wont be resting on an empty chamber
Very interesting thanks for the info and for watching
That's one of the dumbest things I've ever heard.
You guys will love this !!!’
ED’s RED Penetrating Oil Recipe
Works better than most penetrating oils. Let soak overnight for rusted shut or frozen parts
1 part Acetone
1 part ATF (automatic transmission fluid)
1/4 part Lanolin Oil (optional)
Thanks we will definitely try it next time
Thnx. In the buckeye state we do something similar. Throw it into a bucket of used crankcase oil for awhile ..then #2 heating oil for at least a week fish it out remove filth
Awesome Guy's!! Such a cool find and restoration!! So glad you showed every one the safety in firing this gun for the first time in a very long time. You never know the reason the gun wound up In their or any thing about a gun this old. Very cool. So glad y'all found it and gave it the love and respect it deserves.
Thank you very much Jeremy we appreciate all the kind words, thanks for the support and for watching
Hey Hall of Guns... that technique has only been around, oh I don't know, maybe since the gun was invented.
thanks for watching
Hey guys, just curious. You never mentioned the rifling in the barrel. What kind of shape was that in??
the rifling was pretty good actually i cleaned it out really well and could see it just as good as the barrel that came with the parts kit
Никогда не выбивайте таким образом патроны из барабана, мой друг так без пальца остался. Выбивал патрон из ствола винтовки Маузер. Лайк, хорошая работа.
Thank you very much we appreciate it, thanks for watching
Nice find and good restoration. Personally, I would've sent it off to have it professionally inspected for micro-fractures just to be sure. Especially after witnessing Kentucky Ballistics accident with the RN-50 and that was a perfectly maintained rifle that just happened to be loaded with a hot round and not rusting under water for God knows how long.
Imagine kentucky dying video on yt
Thanks we appreciate it, ya what happened to him was crazy. thanks for watching
What happened to Kentucky is what happens when a sabot round is fired through a muzzle break not designed for sabot rounds.
Thats the thing with a revolver. So simple that theres not a lot that can really go wrong. I wonder how many people have lost their lives because of that one misfire from their semi auto.
yea i know a few people have shared stories of it going off on them fortunately none of them were fatal thanks for watching
I have that same model ruger. My dad got it at Sears in about 1969. That's one of the most sturdy, reliable, fun pistols ever. Just a quality piece. Good job restoring it.
The only people who have lost their lives to a misfire with a semi auto are people who had no business having a semi
automatic firearm in the first place. If your dont train with it, if you dont maintain it. If it doesnt go to the gunsmith to have the ejector adjusted or the loading ramp re-profiled. If the firearm has not been dialed and practiced with. A person has no business carrying it. I have put better than 500 rounds through my 1911 between cleanings and the only thing that caused it to occasionally not work properly was it being incredibly dirty.
I’ve ever had a misfire with my semi but have had a few with the light hammer stroke of a revolver
"If you don't take it to a gunsmith and have this adjusted and that reprofiled, you have no business owning it." I mean no disrespect, but you sound suspiciously like an elitist. I understand the importance of training and respect for a loaded firearm, but my 1911 has never seen the inside of a gunsmith shop. I carry it every day on my hip and have put a ridiculous number of rounds through it with no misfires or hang fires whatsoever. Not everybody has the funds to have their weapons tricked out by a gunsmith, myself included
This channel will be huge one day.
Wow that is a really nice thing for you to say bolt gaming we really appreciate that and we have big plans for a lot more restorations and two still magnet fish hope to see your comment in the future because we coming back to everybody thanks for watching
@@TheKinzlerBros anytime.
We are aiming high as well for the for the channel and we have big plans coming up I’m gonna be fishing this weekend but we have some really good restorations that nobody knows about yet except for just the Kinzler Bros
After I soaked it in that rust remover I would have put some WD-40 on that the those screws and the other parts that move and let that soak in for a while before I started trying to remove any of those screws or anything else
I know I should have done that thank you for future reference. Because the wd was right on the table.
Wd40 is garbage. Doesnt work.
Its not even a rust penetrant. Its a water displacing formula. Thats it.
50/50 Mix of ATF and Acetone or PB blaster is a proper penetrant
@@zuestoots5176 I totally agree with you. WD stands for water displacement and the 40 is the 40th chemical combination they tried.
Hard to tell in the vid, but it appears you were firing either 38 Smith and Wessons, or, 38 Specials out of a Ruger Blackhawk .357 Magnum. I would have liked to see more about how you cleaned the bore.
they were 38 special S&W, could not find any other round these days, sorry i did not show the bore cleaning, i tried to put the interesting parts and keep it as low as i could since most people these days have very low attention spans. Hope yo see you comment again George
@@TheKinzlerBros please refrain from firing a .38 s&w out of a 357/38spl. The .38 s&w uses a wider bullet than a .357 or .38spl, the .38spl is .357 in diameter while the .38 s&w is .361 in diameter. Depending on the firearm you fire it out of, you could have a catastrophic failure. Might damage the forcing cone. Or it might work "ok" and have much more lead fouling in the barrel. But I dont reccomend it, especially out of the blackhawk you've restored
I like restoration wellness where they show that it will fire winter storm
Thanks for watching
Let's test one chamber and just trust that the other five are perfectly fine.
Ya we should've done all of them but, we were more concerned with the barrel handling it. thanks for watching
The ammo left in the gun is worth more than the gun. When the Dremel comes on, the laziness of the restorer is magnified.
Sorry we are still learning, thanks for watching
Jesus Christ you act like you saw a grinding stone. You saw a very fine wire wheel that had the equivalent coarseness of the 0000 steel wool. So by your logic he shouldn't have even used the steel wool either and as a gun smith and machinist I can tell you that is wrong.
He used it to clean rust off a gun that didn't have a finish anymore. What you wanted him to break out the 100 grit sandpaper and change the shape of the metal, because hand sanding would have messed it up way more than that dremel? Nothing he did changed the shape of the metal. So how exactly did he mess it up?
Just scream Dremel and start criticizing????WTF, sorry dude but thats an asshole move, because I saw a person clearly try their best, if their best is not good enough for you then thats a YOU problem not the rest of the world. And how you know its a YOU issue is that you didn't say anything about the use of an acid bath on the aluminum trigger guard which tells me you actually have no idea what this type of work entails and what is acceptable to do and what isn't.
If it had been a grinding stone I would have been right there with you but it wasn't and it is an acceptable way to remove rust from the gun. You literally called someone LAZY for the use of a fine wire wheel on a dremel. You should remember that the next time you turn on an electric drill, by your logic you should NEVER use an electric drill because thats being lazy.
Way to go young man! Those "old" models are my favorite.
Thanks Moto, we appreciate it, thanks for watching
I’ve watched a ton of restore videos on old rusty guns. This is the first one where the firearm was test fired after. I’ll be watching yours. Not subscribed to the others.
Wow that is so nice of you to say most people say I do not know what I’m doing and I am ruining the firearm. So thank you for the nice compliment. Too bad I could not find any 357 mag rounds to fire through it for ya. Hope to see your comments again I comment to every comment all the time
Evidently you have never watched any videos on the Anvil channel.
@@TheKinzlerBros those people can go fly a kite. The firearm was nearly worthless in its current condition. I would rather have a restored and functional old pistol to play with then a museum quality piece.
"As you can see, its still loaded."
*Proceeds to hit the cylinder with a mallet*
Ya it was the only way to get them out we tried every lubricant and solvent to loosen it up but, it didn't work. thanks for watching
Definitely a gun worth restoring. I 100 percent would’ve tried to do the same. Ruger makes great revolvers. The ruger old army was one of the greatest and strongest revolvers of the 18th century. It could just take abuse like a champ. So honestly if any revolver could be restored I’d think a ruger would be a good one to try to restore. They also sell parts and spare cylinders for them so as long as you can get the frame back in good shape you’re good to go. How was the rifling ?
Absolutely worth it. Ya they are great guns! The rifling is still good, thanks for watching!
