I see you already know that one of the most important requirements for a restoration channel is a cat. Thumbs up.

I remember when I had one. But I lost it years ago. Thanks for the memories.

That flashlight looks a lot like the MX-99/U, which was used by the US Military during the Vietnam War from 1963-1973.

Lesson learned here, never try to polish the reflector. It is as shiny as it can get. Trying to make it shinier, made it duller... If you continue refurbish such things, set up a powder coat system. The colors are endless and won't peel or chip off... Thumbs Up!

You'll always need a cat to accompany you while restoring stuff :3

Nice. Looks great. I didn't like the look of it unpainted aswell but restoration is about restoring not preserving so good job. Camera skills are other little important details will come to you. No worries. I like it! Keep on restoring things

Do you by chance recall what bulb you used? I am attempting to repair the same flashlight and can not find the correct bulb.

I have a similar flashlight style, however when I install a new bulb and batteries the bulb is very very dim. Any thoughts?

Yeah, you definitely need to work on your camera positioning. Small paint touch ups can be done with a small artist brush. Other than that....nice restoration. :)

very seldom seen anyone polish a torch reflector and not rub the silvering off! Try a bit of home nickel plating?

Gee, I have one just like this, complete with the Boy Scout logos this one has on the butt plate and the top. I'm unaware that the Army used Boy Scout flashlights.
