HW 35 after unboxing

This one has been sent to us to finish the stock refinishing, and strip and service the action, and rectify any issues.

Definitely the residual grease looks about 4 decades old! it is low on power, and stiff to cock, with a few other issues…

Power testing

A little unwell

The hard work happens next..
