OMG!......while I am usually one that professes not to alter an older mil surp rifle doing just that seems to have been warranted here.

You did a very nice job and returned an exquisite lady back to it's beauty.

Once again....great revival job!

Why thank you!
I love the gun!
Can believe it looks like that, i found it in a damp shed, and was covered in rust, but the bore was just a shinin'

Shoots great too, accurate!
