    Who gives a flying fart in a windstorm? I put it together for my own satisfaction. I only share the photos for those that approve. Others are welcome to keep their pie hole shut. Or not. It's is a free world because of those that have served, is it not? Respect can only be earned, not demanded. That is of coarse unless I carry a bigger stick.

      Good answer! Nothing tickles the crap out of me more than taking my so-called "parts guns" out to the range, and whipping everyone with them. I love scouring parts bins and finding treasures here and there and then scabbing together a gun that shoots and shoots. I sure like the looks of your piece, even though it is not "historically correct," as some will moan.

        Progression of Frankensteen/Macaroni. This is now all Winchester except the front half of the receiver which was produced by our friends at Bula Forge. Thanks Jeff. And thanks to Mark Hartman at James River for gluing the halves together. It is going to be a very good year.
        Only thing left from the first set up is the receiver. Now sporting A kit with barrel and bolt from super gent in Oklahoma.

            Very nice, thanks for posting the pictures. I don't see a problem with the put together pieces as long as the firing pin retraction timing is in spec.
