WD40 and Browning Double Auto
WD40 is actually useful in a limited way for firearms maintenance. Really light rust can be controlled with a light touch and some 0000 steel wool. The Double Auto (The "Twelvette") is pretty cool too, no? Support us: www.patreon.com/anvil and a big shout out to those that do.....

Thank you sir 🙏
I pity anyone truck jacking him: Not so much 'say hello to my lill'friend' and more: "I say, old chap, say hello to my diminutive companion here.. now be a good chap and keep still whilst I colonize you"😁😁
Awesome.. have a sub
Yup, just don't put WD-40 in the action, working parts. Will gum up after a while. Boy will it! !
Rack an old pump gun thats been cleaned for many years with WD40 and you can hear it compaired to a recently cleaned. Makes a much different sound. It's not a lube,it was invented by the electrial industry to dry the inside of E boxes.
“Brass punch”
Tankz sir continew yuoe blog sir ipallow your""chanil how to makw ang prosses to gun spre,parst
I WANT QUALITY OVER QUANTITY EVERY TIME. THATS WHY I COME AND WATCH YOU . NOW GET YOUR ARSE BACK TO WORK . 🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭👋👋
I use WD-40 as a solvent and also I remove rust the same way this guy does, just make sure it’s #0000steel wool nothing rougher, after it’s use however I wipe it down and use a good quality gun lubricant. WD = water displacing. The wood looks fine as is .
I use WD40 'white lithium' silicon on my nitro piston break-barrel pellet rifle. Regular WD40, though, I was told to never use it in the bore or breech.
You said that wrong Mark. The colt 1903 leaf spring works sear, disconnector, trigger. The mainspring works the grips safety at the bottom. The 1911 work the sear, disconnector/trigger and grip safety. Good video though.
I love the sound of this one
Neat methods of refinishing a gun stock. Good hints here. you ever consider using Tung oil?
GOOD TO SEE YOU STILL AT IT MARK AND BROUNO
Damn she kicks
Nice ,dir ilostrtion,tsnkz and cntinew your blog iwan to know this ,matter
A whole video didn’t show how to clean it 🤷🏻♂️
If you don't have the book then bookmark this video. Or both?
Very nice Mark! The Browning ''Double Auto'' ( One was called ''The Twelvette'' and the other was ''The Twentyweight'') They were also produced in several different colors. Art's Gun Shop usually has some for sell on Guns International!
I have a Wamo sling shot can you rebuild it with new rubbers? The best quote I’ve gotten is $12,000. Can you do it for less? Hehehe
Back around 2015 I bought a 1920's as close as I could tell from what serial # records there are A5. It has a very nicely figured stock and no forend crack. But it does have a Cutts compensator on it. So I got it for all of $150. After I did my research on the friction rings I've always thought it was a really soft shooting gun when set up correctly. As the owner of a Winchester 1911, Remington 48, and a Remington model 8 and 81 I don't mind the long recoil shuffle. I always found it interesting how Browning used such thin screw slots because he didn't believe the average person was smart enough to work on his design. Which very well may have been true at the time and even now. According to the Browing biography FN hired the wives and daughters of the male employees to engrave the A5's by hand right up until production at FN stopped. Therefore no two engraved A5's are exactly the same.
What “grade” solder do you use ? After 51 years of plumbing, and piping …a high nickel content solder is very strong.
As the 13 owner of a Model 40, my dad and I would like to thank you for the video! Still took us 6 hours but we would have really struggled without it.
Great video - Thank you!
“Nothing back here got molested”
11:25 - Sir? You are taking an AWFUL lot of metal off this screw?
Thank you kindly for this video, I recently acquired an 08, with a broken firing pin, and I had no idea, how I was going to disassemble the lock to replace it. So appreciate it.
A G I American gun smithing Has a good video on these very informative on the history and the many different iterations.And which one came before which in which parts are better

Cool shotgun.....not familiar with them. Thanks for the tip on WD-40 and light rust!
Thanks, Mark. Always a pleasure to watch a true professional at work. 1873 owner.
Thanks, Mark. Much appreciated. Will share video with son who took over my 1911 years ago. Excellent 1911 tutorial.
Just like I did mine.
Shes a beauty...
what manner of malcontent would describe this as "Bubba'ing" Is there something wrong with them??? Are they on the pipe. That is a beautiful piece.
почему все амеры много болтают?
It is a mechanical trigger ,not inertia trigger.
Mark, you are at the top of the gunsmithing people on UA-cam. I enjoy your sense of humor and your vernacular. You are very informative and entertaining and a pleasure to spend "my" time on. Thank you for your knowledge and time. Chip
