Stick a fork in him. He's done. Trapdoor-itis claims another victim. :)

I'll never be as knowledgeable as Dick. Information goes in one ear then the overflow falls out the other😂.
Glad you like the rifle.

For old readers of this board, I am STILL planning on completing my mockup M1882 28" Short Rifle, around a genuine rod-bayonet. Finally found a fairly close receiver, and have physically started reshaping the front end parts, including a latch base made by a friend. Will take pictures as I go. Maybe THIS winter? Problem is I have too many plans and not anywhere near enough time - "life" keeps getting in the way!
