Some more pictures sent in by Ka'imiloa to show how the restoration is progressing. My guess is that the transformation is going to be great to watch as these projects always are. Happy viewing!

Ka'imiloa's note says:

Here are the promised pics of the progress so far on the old 6-bore double (actually 5-bore). You will see the gun with its braces, barrel wrap and crude buttpad removed; the underside of the heavily re-soldered barrels plus ball-puller ramrod; the restored parts; the engraving (curiously mismatched); the mismatched top rib and rib-extension suggesting the rib was a replacement; the evenly corroded muzzles showing that the barrels are likely original length at 24"; the Proof(Birmingham) and Maker's (ROSE'S) marks.

Good hunting!
