Rodney, I'll just use this one post to thank you for showing all the rifles you had pictures for. It must make you feel good to have had the chance to work and be around so many unusual items- things most of us don't get to do. Today you earn the attaboy. Smiley

Rodney,
That is a proper restoration. Sounds like a pretty major effort.
The rifle looks to be a workable shooter, yet retains its age and heritage.
Good job.
Chuck
