Mine is still being put together.
The photo shown is what I'm aiming for it to end up like.
The rifle needs a new stock and to be reblued.

Currently been recrowned and open sights attached. Once done, check accuracy then go looking for someone to do a new stock... been with the gunsmith for a year and covid isn't making things any faster
