    Hi Akaroa,
    who fluted your barrels? I have an Encore with two barrels and I couldn't find anyone willing to do the fluting.
    loving everything high velocity, and a a few calibres not so high velocity

    I suspect, and hope, that he did it himself.

    @243wssm all flying and barrel bands and woodwork done by me

    Currently started a G1 contender project that entered the queue
    G1 22 LR barrel needs shortening, threading for suppressor, barrel sling mount band, captive hinge pin, fluting, new fore end and quick take down screw
    So the G1 will get the full treatment
    Then I have a G1 barrel to stub, barrel and chamber 30-30
    Hoping to do some serious light weighting on is and have a 5 pound G1 30-30 hunting rifle for my grandson
    Currently 4 months old !
