    e advice.

    It would be after you heat it, The stuff from track I have not neutralized but I've only been playing with it for about a year. Now if you use easy off oven cleaner I have neutralized that with Vinegar since it is a Base instead of an acid. The Aquafortis when you heat the color pops quick...

    e advice.

    I'll second aquafortis. The knifes and call before and after pics. Then a barrel channel that I used easy off oven cleaner also worked but the aquafortis is what I like better.

    Goofed Inlet fix?

    Y'all are killing me. I don't like showing my mistakes when half of it was caused by one Item you guys preach about not using. But my chisel would not fit....that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it. OK look at the top of the cross and the corner at the bottom of the cross.

    URGENT: Key measurements of an antique rifle (Hawken)

    cast off is angle of the butt in relation to the alignment of the barrel. It puts the eye straight in line with the barrel. Think bent at the wrist area(if right handed) to the right if looking from the butt to the sights. Toe out is (if right handed) the top of the butt plate closer to the...

    Goofed Inlet fix?

    I have plenty of metal to move it up, but it' not that bad to have to re-inlet again if I can get it fixed. It's only about 1/8" semicircle.

    URGENT: Key measurements of an antique rifle (Hawken)

    dist between thimbles, buttplate width and height, side plate size and shape. I suggest plastic calipers as you go close to a gun with metal you liable to scratch.

    Goofed Inlet fix?

    Goofed Inlet fix?

    Guys I goofed my toe plate inlet, ended up with a chip at the top. I made it shorter so If I had a breakout I could just make it longer and redo the inlet. But this is not total failure but needs a fix if y'all suggest an ok way to fix that is. I'll be doing aqua fortis finish on the gun so...

    New Barrels for build arrived.

    Plan on doing it tomorrow, I'll let them know. I'm sure I can find something to do with them. If I get them milled down I could just leave the bottom flat high and not have to attach an under rail. LOL. I just think it's funny Here I'm expecting two thin light barrels and I feel that box and...

    It was a big box gun parts store, I don't know of any barrel maker that would make such a error. You guys are safe with the normal guys.
