Thread: ? "Restore or not to Restore" ?

The Marlin owes me bugger all and wouldn't be worth much.
It was more about making it a little more user friendly especially if it gets wet.
I don't want it to look shiny and new, so what about some of the brownish type treatments that get done to metal?
I will pull the mag apart as you suggest and give it a polish up inside. If the spring is a separate item I might try and shim between it and the base of the mag instead of stretching it.
