forepaw Report post Posted March 17, 2018 Very nice work and materials. Looks like it already has a Buehler low-swing safety, and bolt handle appears to have been modified for scope clearance. Drilled and tapped on the right side for receiver sight. That is a classic. It would have been much admired at the gun shop I worked in during my high school years. Any idea what has been done to the trigger? forepaw Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

forepaw Report post Posted March 17, 2018 Well, good chance that everything is hand-fitted and polished. Just guessing but the wood looks like it could be French or Bosnian walnut? It is pretty nice. forepaw 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
