    I'd want to know who did the gunsmithing as I've seen some real shocking shit come out of guncity and you could probably kiss any kind of warranty goodbye also. And those stocks..... Yuck. I had one a few years back and it just didn't work for me at all they are really bulky through the wrist and quite square up front and to be honest they just look really unpleasant in my mind it doesn't matter how light a rifle is if it feels bulky then it will never handle well and mine started to delaminate along the fore end

    and its a garden variety .308winchester....if you want light...go Scot Trail jobbie...... if you want reliable go HOWA.... if you want flash looking, buy some pink spray paint....3.5k yeah thats just crazy money...... Im going to have nightmares now....
    if you want to spend big coin and get nice rifle buy a sako..... at least yo uwill still have good warrantee if something goes wrong,and resale will not hurt so much....
