Tom I agree with you and I happen to have a Super nice RB shotgun action with hammer saftey etc.All case colored etc that came from my friend SS Dave. That I am thinking I might use for the project. And as I now have a small helath problem. I got to limit my projects to what I really want to do. If I can get my camera going I will try and take some pic's of a Mauser Joe also sent me that he had built.In 223 and complete with a custom stock and DST's all done except for bluing and said merry Xmas. and it was not Xmas but close to him leaving us.????
