Mike,
I had an older Gentleman tell me once that patience is the 'art of finishing it correctly'. Too many rush to finish the job as the end is in sight. The result is one of the prettiest rifle I have seen in along time.
The simplicity is what makes you rifle stand out.
Congrats on doing a fine job. Your pride in your workmanship is evident. :thumbsup:
BTW, my birthday was last week.....hint, hint, nudge, nudge, wink, wink.... :rotf: :rotf: :rotf:
Thank you for sharing.
Cheers, DonK
