One of the best channels on UA-cam. Blows my mind that most folks don’t appreciate or even understand the level of knowledge required for these videos. Thanks for pushing us to learn more about these old guns. You’re the reason I ended up buying up a bunch of old surplus wood stocks to practice on. My old Mauser looks gorgeous now, still has all the character and history but now it’ll last many more years.
The guy is brilliant.
Well said! I can’t list everything I’ve learned from him. If I could only have one UA-cam channel it would be his.
"He who thinks it foolproof has yet to meet all available fools" is ,
without a doubt,
The single best phrase I've heard this year so far.
That is a good one.
That's just a dressed up version of the old saying "Make it idiot proof and someone will make a better idiot."
@@JeepWranglerIslander yep....!
@@JeepWranglerIslander pretty sure that's the nuke school equivalent of "the world will produce a better idiot."
For the many of these I've watched, and they are many. One thing has been a constant for all things, besides Mark of course. Is that much smith work is done with light strikes and as gentle removal as possible to sneak up on the goal rather than trying to rush to the finish. That said, the most unspoken of rules just seem so obvious as to not need to be said.
1: It's easier to subtract than add.
2: Making extra work takes up your time, time is valuable. Don't spend it if you don't have to.
3: If it's not fitting, take it apart again to find out why.
4: Frustration wastes time, see rule 2 for time.
5: Small steps make big movements.
6: If it's already dickered up, don't make it worse.
7: Know when to push back from the bench to eat.
8: Planning saves time.
9: Ugly and functional can be made pretty later.
10: If you break things, learn from it.
Whenever Mark says that anything is "Difficult to screw up" I like to remind myself that difficult isn't the same as impossible, and life can find a way.
I’m pretty good at idiot proofing things but am under no allusions about how far superior life is at creating a better idiot.
I have a couple of Remingtons in .43 Spanish. When I bougth them I was given several blue paper wrapped packets of UMC .43 Spanish ammo. I shot a few and all the cases split. Years later I noticed the label was peeling, so I peeled it off. Underneath I found another label that read "20 patronen für 11 mm Mauser Modell 71 ".
Nine fur das 43 spanishish ........!
I'm so glad you did a video of this Peabody. I have one that I purchased in '71 when I was 12 years old with the help of my late brother 'Mark's' $95, promptly repaid. I saw it advertised as an 1862 .433 caliber in a local newspaper classified...just had to have it.
I did a chamber casting about 30 years ago and the closest determination from the only book I had at the time, a '76 copy of Cartridges of the World was thatvit was probably .43 Spanish. Why not .433 Peabody one may ask? Well, there was simply no loaded cartridge data drawing available to me at the time and I still have not been able locate.
This story is much longer, used vintage cartridge purchases, RCBS die set, recently purchased .433 Peabody (10) cartridge pack from Buffalo Arms and I'd like to share this with you someday, Mark.
I'd even like to send her in to you to look her over for me.
Maybe someday? Anyway, great videos Mr. Novak!
I think Mark would have a field day if he could visit the workshop of Holland and Holland. Of course with the mandatory cigar and whiskey
Even if you don't ever work on firearms, the shop knowledge from these videos is invaluable.
"Katsumoto no longer dishonors himself by using firearms, you see?"
These videos are very much enjoyed, even by those of us that'll never do more than field strip our ARs. Thanks Mark.
Mark! Thank you for another great video! Since your K98AZ video, I have been able to conserve a Polish K98AZ (coverted to the vz.24 pattern barrel bands, sanitized and then sent to Spain), a 1884 Springfield Trapdoor, a 1895 Chilean Mauser from the Loewe factory, a post-War Chinese-contract C96, a Bolo C96, a Arisaka Trainer rifle, 2x barrels for a semi-auto Mg42, a Stevens Model 24, a C. Baker side-by-side Damascus steel shotgun, and a pre-1916 Gewehr 98 that will be the basis for a WW1 G98 sniper build. Had to get a Walther G43 worked on, but it will get the full conservation when it gets back. Your videos are invaluable!
OUTSTANDING
Nothing like watching a master at work!
Mark, I never thought I'd see a 4.5" angle grinder in your hand, haha. Well done, shipmate.
Mark when I was watching you cutting the sight leaf spring it reminded me of my father when he was working on one of his projects. As usual a great episode teaching how to do it correct.
Mark, I am 24 and have been into milsurp guns since i was in high school. Im an engineer by trade but I love seeing how my guns work. Your channel has inspired me to take care of my guns, get them out of their stocks, and conserve them where needed. Every time you make these videos, I learn new things from a field I have and will never have professional experience in.
Thank you a ton for these videos Mark, been subscribed for 3 years, and what a time its been!
OUTSTANDING
_"Where is a banana when you really need one"_ Mark Novak. I'll keep this one!! 🤣
I've been working on a Gahendra Rifle that didn't have a hammer. several months and many mistakes later I have a hammer that is 7/8 finished and that last 1/8 is a long slow process. but everything else is there and in remarkable shape for it's age so I think it's worth the work.
Nothing worth doing is easy....stay in the fight
3:33 GERMAN proofmarks I believe...which means this was taken as reparations from France and in store in Germany in 1891?
"During the time immediately leading up to, and especially during, the hostilities known as the Franco-Prussian War of 1871, France's state armories were wholly unable to keep up with the demand (stemming not only from mobilization, but from dramatically huge losses of material in the field) for arms of all kinds, especially infantry rifles. France's agents scoured the world for arms and purchased a bewildering variety of small arms in markets around the world. Remington diverted a large contract of M1868 Egyptian Rolling Block rifles to France, and the French also contracted with Peabody for 39,000 rifles, although only about 33,000 were delivered, these being the "Spanish Model" chambered in .43 Spanish. The rifles are not specifically marked, however, interestingly enough, many of these French Contract Peabody rifles can be identified as such because they were later proofed by the Germans, and it is known that large numbers of weapons were both captured by the Germans during the war and seized as reparations after France's capitulation." www.militaryrifles.com/peabodys
Thank you for another quality video!
I'm a gun tinker. I have learned a lot from watching you work. Glad your taking the time to share your knowledge.
I am impressed by how much of the repairs on older and somewhat rare guns is "trial and error" and requires fitting. There is hope for about any old firearm if it is in the right hands.
I always find out how little I know when watching your videos.
So do I, making them
Thank you both! Always a pleasure! Best wishes, Rich.
I always learn something form each video.
As always, sir, a pleasure to watch you work
Thank you Mr Mark. I really injoy watching your videos. You got to be one of the best Gun smith I've ever seen.
Just wanted to say, THANK YOU. I really enjoy your channel and seeing you work.
Always a fascinating trip down a rabbit hole of your choice! Thank you.
Love this content its always a good day when anvil posts
I love watching someone who is a master at their craft...
You can see the beauty in a gun I could not
And then make it that piece of art for everyone to see
And that's why Im not a gunsmith
Hand fitting is something I do a lot of.
You made me not afraid to do it so thanks.
This was awesome and fun! Have a couple unfinished projects that I’m taking breaks from. Breaks from getting angry that I screwed junk up. I check back in every few months.
Sometimes you just gotta walk away from it before you send it across the room...
I love big bore blacks. Have two martini henrys in 577-450 and two rolling blocks in 50-70
This is by far my favorite channel on UA-cam. I wish there were similar channels to watch
Truly, one of the best channels on YT. Well made videos. Always happy to see how mr. Mark gives new life for these old guns what have changed the world. Thank you - Mark the Gunsmith and Bruno the man who knows his cameras. All the best and greetings from Estonia
Hey Mark great video and thanks for showing.
When i was a young man i mowed lawns in Rhode Island for a black powder gunsmith out of Texas, who summered there. I wish i remembered his name. His " garage" had some goodies, kind of what got me into machining. He had a benchtop shaper that i used to love and watch. What a cool machine tool. Anyways i forget my point exept i love black powder and i love machine work.
Another great episode! What a cool weapon too.
3 years later I’m still looking for the repro Mauser 98k front sight hood that bounced off my glasses….
Ouch.....been there though
It landed in something.
Mark, thanks for taking them time to share your knowledge and process.
This is a outstanding weapon. And it's a pleasure to see it functional again thank you for sharing this six stars sir
What a beautiful rifle. Awesome mechanics to it. You’re a master. I’m glad you do some things like I do. I don’t feel so stupid anymore. Lol
As I said, these videos are about what we need to go learn. I've just made more mistakes than you have....
@@marknovak8255words of a true master.
Another one of your and Bruno’s great educational gunsmiithing videos.
Always some of the most interesting and entertaining content on UA-cam and this episode was a great one!
Like that SOTAR patch above your workbench
His channel and knowledge warrants it. Right next to the Spetznatz patch
This action reminds me of a Martini Henry, with the drop block, with the difference of this one having external hammer and the Martini having a internal striker, among other slight differences. Enjoy your stuff and thanks for taking the time to share a small part of it.
Thank you, Mark. Always enjoy and pick up something! Love watching you make springs.
.43 Spanish-ish ... wonderful description. Many Thanks for rescuing a thing of such beauty.
43 Spanish was the caliber of two of 3 my dad had one split cases the other was very nice the other was an odd size caliber but still a Peabody
I always learn a ton from your videos Thanks Mark
liked and shared before i started watching. i have faith in you, chief. carry on.
When everything goes smooth on the first pass, I get nervous.
The light at the end of the tunnel might be the headlamp of an oncoming freight train....just sayin
Wishing a speedy recovery, been missing the weekly uploads!
If you do lose a screw or other small part on the floor you can use a broom to locate it. Make sure any music or TV is off. Drag the broom slowly across the floor like you are painting it and the broom is the roller. Keep the broom straight and go from side to side slowly. Again, pretend you are painting the floor. If the broom grabs the part, you should be able to hear it scraping across the floor. If you have a carpet, well, good luck.
Outstanding vid. Good job.
So many headaches I had to deal with seem like they came from 50's, 60's "gun smithing" so many really great guns got absolutely ruined in that time period
Always enjoy your videos. Especially the longer ones like these because they are excellent for sitting down and enjoying a cigar.
That's a nice Rifle, I find these older fire arms extremely interesting,
Thank you very much for this and all other videos. Highly entertaining, fun and educational!!!!
Another great video. Thanks Mark.
By golly, you are a gunsmith!
As always another great episode, thanks for sharing!
Always interesting content and the best bumper music.
Great Anvil as always!
Hopefully I'm absorbing some of your knowledge.
Now if only I could get the .44 Bulldog back together.🤣
Keep up the fantastic work!
" Outstanding" As always Sir Thankyou.
My first exposure to a Peabody, it's different with the exposed hammer, I can see the similarities to the Martini-Henry. They are commonalities of the era, big holes and black powder. Great Video, Thank You Sir !!!!!
Love your channel. Please keep downloading material
Amazing machine work for 1870...thanks mark.
i have been needing this.....thank you
Another great video! Thanks for sharing your knowledge for free. You are a professor of the gun and are helping to keep the trade alive.
Algorithm engagement comment
An angle grinder, right at the beginning of the video? What're you tryin' to do, give me heart palpitations?
I have always aspired to become a proficient and professional gunsmith, however life kept getting in the way. I certainly enjoy watching these videos.
32:45 As the man once said about a fifth that amount, "THAT'S A LOT OF NUTS!"
Tony comes through!
Nice job Restomod crew!
Mark said something that really jogged my noggin. "this gun isn't British, it's American." it seems like the British have a thing for adopting foreign guns: the peabody is American, so was the lee. They adopted the belgian fal during the cold war. The sa80 is basically an ar180 and now they adopted an upgrade package from germany. Of course they modify the actions a lot but I find this amusing.
Pretty common on all sides though, the ‘03 is a direct Mauser copy, the M1917 is an Enfield improved Mauser, the M60 action is a modified MG42. Nations/armies don’t design weapons, gun designers do.
great work man, loved the video
Thanks Mark. Excellent
How did a round, .43 Spanish, that was used in so many rifles, become so obscure? It is very hard to find now and when you do find it it is very expensive.
Excellent as always.
Outstanding as usual.
Hi!
It seems that old guns have been blued, but is the browning a real thing or is it just rare or something? And thanks for sharing thees videos, there is something relaxing to watch and listen your videos so keep it up... I'd love to see more things like kar 98 video but hey it is what it is... Thanks again you are saving thees guns from decaying into dust and keeping history alive.
a weapon with the proper cleaning rod? i don't believe it.
Serialed to the receiver no less
@@marknovak8255 someone call the Pope, we need a miracle verified!
Love your cigar lighter! I'll have to try that.
That's one of the Japanese guns of all time
I loved the part where you angle grinded the shit out of the spring steel! I was expecting a tiny file to appear... :D
love your videos. You are a true smith guns or otherwise!
Outstanding.
The only guy I’ve ever heard of that got a higher score on the ASFAB than I did, and sure accomplished a helluva lot more than most of us!
Its like watching an Artist at work!
Yep. And a really good teacher. Which is an art. It all folds together. When I think about why I've watched him all these years now, it has pretty much nothing to do with gunsmithing, per se.
Mark said “flacid.”
You're damn right I did.....just sayin.... m
?!! I'm sure I remember from somewhere that it was found that the cartridge feed ramp had to be left in the white, & was polished the bejeezus out of - otherwise the brass started hanging up on it. Go check. Prove me wrong. I'm always glad to have my memory proved wrong - because we both learn.
I totally agree
That wouldn’t be the Peabody, the breech blocks (and receivers, lock plates, hammers, and more) were colour case hardened from the factory and issued that way. I own several, none are polished.
The Crown V proof marks ( London View mark) could have been applied ( a) when rifles acquired by Japan, or (b) when surplussed by Japan in 1890s early 1900s through Britain.
Peabody's, Mausers, Gras, Martinis were all trialled in 1870s ( during Meiji Restoration 1868) in order to find a suitable system for the new Imperial Army.
Interesting gun...Any Japanese marks on
it?
Great content as always Mark. BTW I finished that 1917 French Lebel trench rifle. I rust blued all the steel (by hand with a broken thumb!). Unfortunately all the accessories along with the trigger group would not hold any rust bluing. IDK. Maybe made of a real cheap metal, tin and nickel? It's all in good working order. I left the barbed wire scars on the stock and didn't sweat them out. Wanted to leave some war history. Now if I could only find some ammo. Thanks for all the knowledge, it helped me a lot. God Bless.
If ya can find brass, I hear Graf & Sons might have some for maybe $1 a case.
@@davidjamessandling yeah, Midway USA has casings. Thanks. I'll look into Graf n sons
Once a year Privi Partizan seems to do a run of 8mm Lebel. Dial your store into that, the ammo is excellent
@@marknovak8255 yeah, no one is carrying it right now. Not even Privi
@@marknovak8255 I did some research, courtesy of Ian McCollum. It's actually a 1916 Berthier in 8mm Lebel. Why I thought it was 1917 I'm not sure. Bad information from another UA-cam source.
43 Spanish-ish 😂, a chamber cast would be interesting.
Another great video post, the pleasure is all ours. Cheers 🍻
Master gunsmith!
Thanks for the video
Nice lines on that rifle.
Enjoy you video Mark
