RWK, thanks for following up, I'm glad you're satisfied with the final product. It looks like you eventually got really good value.

I'm a very interested observer, as I'm waiting for them to return my Rem. M-31L. There were some problems with their first effort at restocking this gun to my specs, and Vicki assured me they would make it right. I felt discouraged by your posts, but now am more hopeful for a good outcome. I'll get back here later with photos to let everyone know how it turns out.

Jay
