Just put my Savage Striker together again after smoothing up the trigger and repainting the stock. I can't help it, I just don't like black plastic guns. Now green fleckstone plastic guns, they are things of beauty. Now it's a match for my Ruger 10/22. Problem is, I've been so busy around here I haven't had time to shoot it. Okay, so there were a few rounds of Colibri out the kitchen window, but that doesn't really count. Man, can't wait to get outside with this thing.

This is something I couldn't do. If the gun needed work when I bought it, I for the most case (99.97%) wouldn't. And once I had it, it would only be a few hours at most before I'd be at the range. The only two guns that have broken that pattern were both mil-sup that had to be cleaned. They made it the next day.

or a vehicle, or a bass, or a computer system. I think that the only thing I like better than shooting is tinkering. I'm the Tim Taylor of firearms. Wait, everything he does ends up blowing up... okay, so I'm still the Tim Taylor of firearms.:D Right now I'm putting the finishing touches on my old Glenfield model 15. It's always been my most accurate .22, but now it looks like a brand new rifle. Tactical black stock, free floated barrel, and a trigger that breaks at somewhere around 1 pound. As soon as my change of address C&R gets here I'll start on my next gun project, a M44 scout rifle. Just bought the offspring a '78 Ford Futura that's kept me up to the elbows in grease. We're rebuilding the carb tonight. It's a wonder I find enough time to go to work.

ONE POUND!:what:


I can see it now, your about ready to take your shot, you take a breath, the guy next to you farts and the gun goes off with the shot striking the berm in front of the target.:neener:

Well, I took the Striker out to the range today, and I absolutely love it. From the bench at 25 yrds all the shots are touching if I do my part. At 50 yrds the group opens up a bit, but I can still cover it with a quarter. This pistol screams for a better scope. The left hand bolt makes for a very quick bench pistol. The thick plastic trigger ends up feeling like a trigger shoe and helps the trigger pull. I still don't like the cheesy stamped magazine and doubt I ever will, but I guess I can live with it.

The Glenfield had to stay home. As many of you have guessed at, I may have gone too far on the trigger. You can fire it by either pulling the trigger, or by bumping it against any solid object. No biggie, just another project.
