Make sure that you have a clean change of underpants handy for after you open the box; you're going to need them. Welcome to the forum!

Check my earlier post for pics of Tims work which I'll be posting right after this reply. I had him do a few actions and I finally got the wood done for one and got it back together. Now I need to do the other stock set.

Welcome to the forum. Now just sit down, buckle up and hang on 'cause it's a rough ride sometimes, but fun none-the-less.

The rifles are not Correct, but they do have many correct parts. Anyway I had new barrels put on them and he placed them in stocks he stamped for me. Heres what I received in the mail! Oh by the way, turn around time was like 6 days for both rifles and this included a weekend! FAST!

I had them shipped to the Firehouse where I work, when I opened them the guys were awestruck! I could have sold both rifles then and there NO PROBLEM!
He also parked a WWII Japanese Ariskia for me, everything is Top Shelf! You'll be pleased!

Welcome to the forum, and roll up your pants legs 'cause it gets kinda deep here! Post your new baby when she comes home! Good Luck and Good Shooting! Thomas a.k.a. The Hoser

Frankly, no matter who phosphates your rifle, they all look about the same so I can't take any artistic credit. The difference in myself and others are in other areas.

On another note, I do love the great state of Tennessee! Well, except for al gore coming from there. I lived in Knoxville for a short spell.

If she gets the job you may want to look in Franklin/Murfreesboro areas. I had family that lived in the area for decades. I always loved visiting.
