Model 66-2 (2.5" barrel) cleaned up

[AR_Paratrooper]

Ok! I'm super excited. I posted pics of the new (to me) 66-2 I picked up a while back. I had to do some serious cleaning, and she had several scuffs and scratches, but with some sand paper, mother mag polish, some cloth scraps, elbow grease and "In the Line of Fire" playing on TV, I got her looking pretty good. (I think) I also got rid of the rubber grips and put on some Ahrends boot grips in Cocobolo.

What do you think?

Very nice, those grips do look a lot better than the Pachmayrs.

You did a fine job. Can I send my stainless guns to you for a cleaning?

May be the best compliment I've ever received. And from a marine, no less. . Semper Fi!
