OK so here is the deal..., my brother Mike is a lefty, but his three sons are right handed, and so am I...,
I am also very tired of his zapping elk and sheep in New Mexico and Colorado with his .270 and yammering on about it, and so I have decided to bestow upon him an under hammer rifle that I will build, from parts from Pecatonica River. I will reshape the stock into something akin to a Winchester '94 profile, so it can be fired left or right, and as I already have a 1" wide, 36", .58 GM barrel, that should do the trick on an elk, at 100 yards or less, right?
I figure as he or any of the nephews can shoot the configuration that I plan..., and if they don't like it they can ship it back to Uncle Dave... it's a win/win. IF he likes it and keeps it, then another has turned to the dark side.
(Mwa Ha Haaaa)
What say you all to such a plan?
