I hear the woodsrunner actually does snap together.

I understood the same but after looking it over it will require quite a bit of work. I don't think anything crazy but some high sides and file work. Looking forward to making it my own.

Does it have a three diget number on the under side of the barrel?

Congratulations and enjoy!

I also hear that you’re slow of wit. No offense.

There should be a Kibler forum.

I just finished putting one completely together in under 2 hours.
Carving and finishing is another story.

"All things Kibler", maybe we should.

Don't underestimate the trickiness of breaking the parts out of the master card.

Along those lines, as the saying goes, "No target is too large to miss!"
Keep us posted with photos of your finishing.
Best wishes on building a beautiful rifle!

Yes 100% there should be a Kibler section under the Workshop section...

Take your time and think about any step you are unsure of. For me, working up the nerve to carve the stock took the most time. Finishing the filing/sanding of the parts is probably the most time consuming element.

You will need to chase most of the pin holes with a 1/16 drill bit.

Thank you. I been looking at it in the corner trying to decide how and what I want to do to it.

Get the barrel in as soon as you can to protect the fragile forearm wood as you work on the other installations and some of the finishing.

Good advice from @Bnewberry. Watch the Kibler videos, ask questions, and work slow and methodically. If you try to rush, you’ll mess up for sure. Been there, done that.
