    Shuff's Garand

    My Dupage garand ( http://forum.shuffsparkerizing.com/s...-DuPage-Garand ) has been reborn by the master. His CMP special and new Criterion 308 barrel! Still have work to do on the stock finish but I think it is beautiful now. Excellent work! Now I can say I'm an "official" member of the club! Now to scrape together the funds to have him build a Mini-G for me.

    All I can say is that was a very nice receiver.

    When I shoot it, I'll let you know if it "flames!" And the receiver was very nice, considering that it is older than me. (But not as old as dirt.)

    Nope, it's amber in the tube and looked sorta purple to me, on the gun in the sun. It's XF-7 from Brownells, and since the instructions say not to apply it over any other lubricant, I thought this would be a good time to try it out. Time and shootin' will tell! Oh, and definitely not whatever Tim usually uses.
