Michael is a Mechanical Engineer with plenty of experience machining, restoring and fixing. What started off as a firearm restoration hobby turned into a fully catered for firearm dealership. Michael does work for people all over Australia. Pakenham Firearms has the equipment and know how to perform rust re bluing (slow blue), which is almost non existent elsewhere in Australia. The workshop is well stocked, if we cannot do your task in house we know someone locally that does. Checkout Michael’s restoration work at www.firearmbluing.com.au or on our Youtube channel.
