    Guess I'll throw in something different on here. This is my 1962-65 era M1 carbine that I felt needed an upgrade or two. So I custom built the buttstock and chopped off the old one, extended the grip and refinished all the metall inside and out. It's whole new machine now. I did a short build thread of it in the gunsmith section too

    Thanks, I'll be throwing it up in the classifieds this weekend to trade or fund a Mini 14 build I want to do. Or maybe even an AR if I can scrounge up some extra cash as well

    My new bolt gun. Currently on the short list (about 2 months left) to get a J. Allen stock. I'll definitely re-post better pics when it gets in, because she'll be beautiful.

    Finally got my stamp and my SRT Shadow XL TI. J. Allen is telling me that my stock will ship at the end of the week ... although I'm skeptical. One more picture when I drop her in the stock.

    Finally done! 20" R700 .308 w/ a SRT Shadow XL TI. Timney trigger dropped in a JAE-700 Chasis with a GG&G bipod. I couldn't be happier.
