    That's fantastic.
    I love to see craftsmanship and quality engineering like that.

    Nah, wanted it done straight away, so hooked a couple of car batteries together with jumper leads and used an old arc rod I had in the bottom of the toolbox, seemed to do the job ok

    The tactical version is the same, you just colour it black with a sharpie and a picatinny rail is welded on the side of the scope....to mount tactical shit

    Yeah that's exactly it, however I seem to have an issue with blowing holes in the scope tube when welding on the picatinny rail. Bit of duck tape over the holes should keep the water out tho.

    Doesn't the paratrooper model have the back of the stock cut off at the pistol grip and a brass hinge and latch screwed on to make it folding?

    I may have a position for you, you can be the 'ideas' man, and I'll continue with the quality craftmanship.

    We won't need to worry about a marketing guy, as it's fair to say that high class work like this will sell its self.

    Frankly I am surprised we haven't had military orders streaming in yet, i suppose it is the weekend though, better take your phone off the hook come Monday though, not sure our production capabilities will keep up....
