Attention New Members and those new registering! We had a lot of problems with spammers and bot attacks with the stock measures provided by the software. The 7 for registration was a fix that we came up with on our own that has worked quite well. Yes it is a PIA for both you and administration to put you onto your chosen username. If you come back on and your login does not work retry with your username without the 7. Thanks for joining us from the administration.

Back in 1992 I bought this from a guy who built it to pass his gun smithing class for $150.I worked up a load and shot it for a summer and put it up. The safety is awful and with a scope imposable to turn it to the on spot. Now i see tamney is making a set trigger with a side safety for $95. I don't need this gun ,but it would be fun to bring it to a finished state and shoot it again. I would shoot i shell at a time on the bench to be safe before.

Looks good. Looks you could use some knurling on the OD of the safety.
