This expertise allows us to provide the highest level of quality in every restoration project we undertake.

The Restoration Process

1. Thorough Evaluation

The first step in our restoration process is a comprehensive evaluation of the rifle's condition. This involves examining every component, identifying any structural issues or damage, and determining the necessary steps to restore its functionality and aesthetics.

2. Disassembly and Cleaning

Once the evaluation is complete, we carefully disassemble the rifle, ensuring that each part is labeled and documented. This meticulous disassembly allows us to thoroughly clean each component, removing any dirt, grime, or rust that may have accumulated over time.

3. Replacement of Worn or Damaged Parts

If any parts of the Ruger No. 1S are found to be worn, damaged, or beyond repair, we source authentic, high-quality replacements. Our extensive network of suppliers ensures that we can obtain genuine Ruger parts to maintain the authenticity and integrity of the rifle.

4. Metal Refinishing

One of the key aspects of our restoration process is metal refinishing. We carefully remove any existing bluing or finish, revealing the original metal surface beneath. We then skillfully apply a durable, protective coating, restoring the rifle's beautiful appearance while guarding against future corrosion.

5. Wood Restoration

The wood stock of the Ruger No. 1S often requires special attention. Our skilled craftsmen meticulously repair any damaged or worn areas, ensuring a seamless integration with the original stock. We then apply multiple coats of high-quality finish, revealing the natural beauty of the wood grain.

6. Reassembly and Testing

Once all components have been restored, we carefully reassemble the rifle, paying close attention to proper alignment and functioning.
