Building my own tribute (fake!) NRA Sporter and been gathering parts for several months. Decided to start the metal work; trued receiver face, welded false sight mount holes, finish reamed short-chambered barrel, confirmed headspace, polished all receiver parts and barrel, and installed barrel. Pics are out of order and in two posts. One odd note, though...the safety is reversed from my other five '03 Springfields. I posted on Gunboards, and found out it is a NM rifle conversion. Asked for SRS check (here) recently with little information found. Maybe it was, maybe it was altered later? Enjoy pics! (second set of pics coming in next post)
