Title: "Marlin Mod75 Restoration"
Post by: BananaClip on November 01, 2011, 08:35:46 PM

This 22lr rifle looked past the point of no return... I sanded the entire rifle coated with low gloss black ceramic coating and applied 3 coats of tung oil to the stock..... :thumbsup:
Just gotta go shoot it now :shake:

I have before but not on this one.... This one was sort of a "quicky"... The rifle was so rusted and worn that a fast restoration was all it needed... Plus it was a "free99" job, so I didn't wanna spend too much time and material.... ;D
