at 24 there is no way you know how to drive all of the manual machinery and tooling required I love the age discrimination Marc. Maybe you lacked the know how, but others don't.

i have never met a 24 year old who was an expert with all tooling for lathe, mill, surface grinder, etc. met a lot of 24 year olds that thought they knew everything, but none that did.

All tooling? Of course not, but the number of people that know it all is very small. Are there 24yr olds that know enough about machining to do custom gunsmithing or manufacturing? Yes
Lets face it, gun manufacturing is pretty rudimentary compared to other industries.

I am pleased you brought the old girl back to life and
are enjoying shooting her.
I sure do wish that they could talk and tell us their story!!
Thank you for sharing your journey and well done on the re-functioning of this shotgun.
What are your next intentions?
Mike

He's got the most important thing he can possess to do this job. Determination. The world is full of great inventions that were created by what we consider youngsters. At age eighteen, Ansley H. Fox applied for patent protection on a side by side action, which patent was issued two months later. You may know the rest of the story of his subsequent successes.
