This was an easy job and was done in less than an hour if you don't count the rifle baking in the oven for a couple of hours to cure the Duplicolor hi-temp paint that I used to finish the bottom.
Has K-mart buttstock and pg and RSA fcg to make her legal parts count wise.

Thanks, yeah, I could help you. Did you mention something about a party before over at Saiga-12? If you need some in-person help, then yeah, I could show you, but things are really crazy for me right now - next two weekends are booked. My daughter is graduating and one of my boy's is working on his scout eagle project.... are you in a hurry?
This really isn't a hard thing - I see on your profile that you're a welder/fabricator - shit, you could show me a thing or three! I'm a pork salesman :D You will be amazed at how easy this really is - especially compared to assembling a rifle from a kit.

Na no real hurry I still need to get the parts.Alas I'm no longer in the welding/fabricating industry sold off my equipment long ago to pay for school.But I still have the skills and know how.Yeah many of my employee's are graduating this year as well.I'm sure just a half Day on a weekend would be good,you name the day I'll buy the brews or non alcholic drinks which ever.

"non alcholic" what? :drink: :cupjoe:
OK - I am swamped right now as stated but am also looking for a new job too - so things are kinda crazy. But you'r right - only takes an hour - and after its done, we can shoot it on my range :)
skorion - we are in the central TX area - SA and Austin like - where's Tomball? I think I've driven through there at some time or another....
