This is the restoration of a beautiful Pepperbox made by Stocking & Co. In 1840.
I've been incredibly lucky and I got it almost for free... it was in a bucket full of rusted tools and screws at a Community Garage Sale.
I was trying to keep its original look and finish where it was possible, this piece is almost 180 years old so don't expect any crazy shiny results. Have a look and let me know your thoughts!

Rust bluing was a good call. I would have looked for another cap/nipple guard rather than making one. It retains value that way better, but I get it if the parts are scarce

Beautifully done, when I was 15 (1973) I found a gun like the one you restored in this video, I was up in the Sawtooth mountain range in south-central Idaho, I was hiking, and rock climbing in a place called City of Rocks. The Peppermill gun I found was at the base of granite rock that was 6 stories tall that the miners in the area called the "Tower" the gun I found was not in any way as good as shape as your find. Seeing this video brought back that memory of that day in that place, Thank you for putting up this vid.
