Default Rasak Restoration.

Hi Guys,
I have been fortunate to add this piece to my collection. General photographs can be seen on my post Afghan Jezail?. Although I think it is a very nice item it does need a degree of restoration. The lock is jammed, there are nicotine deposits all over, some of the brass covering is coming away, there are probably small items missing and of course a general tidy up. I personally do not like to bring items back to pristine condition, I like the used look, but I do like where possible to have the relevant bits in working order. I will post close up photos of the bits that need attention asap. As usual I look forward to your views, comments and suggestions.
Regards,
Norman.
