    Have a few pistols that I would like to restore. Can anyone recommend someone in the Baton Rouge or surrounding areas? Thanks

    Not sure what you mean by "restore," but I can tell you that restoring a vintage or antique gun is generally "lost money" in terms of the gun's actual value. In fact, in some cases, a restored gun is actually worth less than it would have been if it was left untouched.

    Of course, if it's something sentimental and you don't care about the monetary value, then have at it.

    That’s a big barrel of worms to open in the historic firearms community.

    What are your goals in restoration? For most firearms they loose value when restored. But that’s not always true:..
