Thank you very much sir, couldn't have said it better myself. Now, what do you think of the sketch? I know it isn't much.

Looks like a profile of the Ruger Gunsite Scout to be perfectly honest. I really am looking forward to seeing even a unfinished rifle and wish you and your crew the best of luck. Due keep us updated on your progress.

Same basic idea as the GSR, but not based on it directly. Short barrel, irons, scout rail, etc. he just drew those features and that's what it ended up looking like

Be a tough sale at that price point, the Navy Arms 45/70 Enfields don't sell well at $400 and the nicer Gibbs are tough to get $600 out of...



Plus it has always been tough to get the big rimmed cartridges to feed well in a bolt. I jus think it would be a very narrow market and tough at the price point in the OP.
