My birthday (2006)

My brother bought me this neat little rifle for my 50th birthday in 2005. Now I owe him big time.

It was built in 1971. I've overhauled the innards and re stained and polished the stock. I've added a sling that was invented in 1907 just for looks. Added Wiliams aperture sight. All work well.

I intend to get one of those bake on finished for the receiver soon as I figure out how it's done:

Check out the Box o truth website Mitch. They show the process on a 1911 but I'm sure the process woulds be the same. Didn't look all that hard to do. They have a step by step and tell you what they used... Good luck.
