Most people start out slow. It seems you hit the ground running !

Great job!
Great job!
Nice work.
I was going to say "Now the fun begins", but I think it already has. Just a differant kind of fun.
My one and only kit gun is a TC .54 cal Hawkin kit that my wife bought for me as a Christmas give about 1985. Still have and shoot it and it still does real well. Not a pretty gun, I plum browned it and used oil on the stock. When newly done the plum brown was pretty . Now all the metal work has turned almost black, which is ok with me now. I remember that it was fun to build and finish back in the 80's. At my age now don't think a project like that would be fun for me, I've gotten older and have turned into more of a nit picker.
I really like building kit guns too. I recently finished my third Lyman Great Plains rifle kit and had it on the range yesterday. Enjoy the results of your time and effort!

I love this pass time. Wether working with your own hands on a build or working on different loads to make your weapon sing and hit the best it can. It is Zen for me.

I'm anxious to try my hand with a Kibler SMR kit. You certainly did good work on those.
