    More pics of my rebuilt '03

    A request was made on the CMP Forum for additional photos of my Dupage-stocked '03, so I thought I'd share them here as well, just for giggles.

    The exposure is a bit dark, I plugged my lights in only to find about half of them burned out. Still, it's actually a good representation of the stocks true color.
    I'm fairly happy with it for a first attempt. The next one will be better.

          Thanks Fred. I was a bit irritated by the lack of handguard clips when the stock arrived, especially since I'd specifically asked about it beforehand. I left them off when I initially finished the stock and knew it wouid bug me, which it did. They're a small but distinctive feature and the rifle doesn't look right without them. I finally decided to whip out the dremel and have at it, hoping I didn't screw it up in the process. It turned out to be a non-event that took me no more than twenty minutes to accomplish.

          I'd like to do a C Stock on the next one, so it's time to look for another project!
