A S I APACHE (PART3)

Finally got round to putting the Apache back together , took 3 of us to get the trigger block and spring back in!!. Every thing went together very well.

Test firing went well a bit of dieseling for about 3 shots, Chrono was at 10.3 so spot on.

Grouping was good about an inch at 35 yards with open sights.

A S I APACHE (PART 2)

The gun has been stripped down and is ready for assembly, the stock needed to be re-finished, I used a Birch wood casey stock kit and the finish is very good , numerous applications and rubbing down with wire wool between coats.

The next job was bluing the metal work , again i used a birch wood casey kit for cold bluing, the barrel was the worst rusted and slightly pitted but has still come out good , the piston block was very good and has come out great. 

Next job is assembly of the gun and then testing.

i will put the finished result up once assembled
