Well said, Diggory. While I cannot afford what you are doing, I keep myself occupied with tired milsurp rifles that are destined for the wall or the parts bin. I buy what is needed for parts (bits?) and put lots of manhours into the guns. I buy dies, brass and bullets and enjoy shooting them. The MAS 1936 I found in a dumpster ended up shooting cast bullets quite well! Cheers!
