Yeah, that's true. I only wish this was like "building" an AR: $100-$150 every pay check.

Thanks for the prompt replies. I went to the school library during lunch and looked at the technical drawings and kuhnhaisen manual. Now I just need funds :(

Anyone have drawings/dimensions for M14/M1A barrels? Specifically the location of the gas port, op rod guide, and cuts for the front sight assembly? If I ever get my money saved up I'd like to chamber one in .260 Rem. I'd love to try it. I know that I'd need an adjustable gas port...

Does anyone have any pictures of an engraved floor plate?

Thanks for the info.on the Lyman 48 Its definitely getting rebarreled. I need the practice and I want a slightly heavier contour on it. I am pretty sure it'll be 6.5, .280, or .25-06. I need ti see if the school has a .280 reamer, and check on the condiction of the. 25-06 and 6.5 reamers. I...

It'll definitely get a pad, especially if I carve the stock (vs getting a 90% inletted stock) I'm considering. 30-06, Anyone have any opinions on good adjustable sights like Lyman and Williams make?

I was considering some of the mid-length cartridges ( .308 7mm-08) but I'm not sure if I will need to modify the magazine to feed properly. I have a Mauser I rebarreled in 6.5x55 so I have the dies and components on hand. Any one have pictures of a nicely sportorized 1903A3? I'd...

My roommate has a Win. 70 he chambered in .35 Whelen. Its fun but not really in the realm of what I'm looking for. I'm willing to sacrifice terminal performance for lighter recoil. In that vein, how is the recoil of .25-06? Or .257 Roberts?

I'm planning on rebarreling it. I'm sorry than I didn't make that clear. Thank you very much.

I have a 1903A3 that's been badly sporterized, and I think I want to rebarrel it. The action/bolt are in pretty good shape, and won't be hard to clean up. The stock is a lost cause and I'm considering making one for it. My goal is to and up with a very pretty gun that is in the style of the...

Regardless of what ever the person looks like, you have a responsibility to your license and to yourselg to not go through with sales you believe may be suspect. If you have a gut feeling trust it. If the person feels slighted they are much more likely to.find a different dealer than file a...

Or.... have your dealer send it back ti the factory. Thar way you will still have the warranty and you can follow up with them if it continues to give you problems

That's him!!! Thanks a lot guys and gals

It's been a few years since I saw this gentleman on TV, but he was interviewed a lot by history channel and military channel programs. He was portly and had glasses. Would handle firearms and explain their function and historical significance. Usually wore white gloves while handling the guns...
