Oh possibly, but that's ok. I've been here for 5 years. To be fair though, the part of California I have been living in has tried for many years to leave the state and form their own. The state of Jefferson... It'll never happen, but I voted for it.

Heh, California is free... Free to drink and smoke yourself retarded. That way you won't notice that your rights are missing!

Well, I finally got my receiver... Stupid CA 10 day waiting period! Now there's no time to start messing with it before the movers come to take my stuff to TX! On the plus side, this means I finally get to move out of CA! Woo!

Thanks Osprey, I'll check it out!

Yeah, I thought about that, but most of the ones that I have come across since I started thinking about doing this have been in really rough shape. So I figured I'd just go for it and try to be comfortable with the fact that I'm going to spend to much doing this! Lol!

Yeah, I know. I could go buy a ruger, complete, for less money. But then I wouldn't have made it, and I wouldn't have had the pleasure of building something with my own two fumble fingered hands! I like projects.

Thanks for the posts guys! I have a feeling it's going to be a long process... I'm thinking of having a gunsmith do the final reaming and head spacing, cause the tools for that are expensive, probably more expensive than getting it done by a pro... but who knows, maybe I'll just do it for s&g's.

Hey there guys, I'm building a mauser 98 in 6.5x55 from scratch for my wife's birthday. I have a striped receiver on the way and I've been looking at short chambered barrels. I plan to use a custom ordered Boyd's laminate stock and a Timney trigger. Any sage words of advise? This will be my...

Nice looking holster! As far as design goes, it looks good, but it doesn't seem to have any kind of tensioner or any other form of retention. Now that may not be a big deal for some, but for me it's a deal breaker. Second were it my design I'd leave a bit of a hole at the muzzle end to let a...

Jonnyc, why? Did you have one that blew up in your hand or something? Are they otherwise unsafe? That's the only time I'd tell someone to run away from a gun... like the automag. Run away from that piece 'o crap! And yes I did have one blow up in my hand!

Anybody out there have one of these little beasts? Titanium .45 daringer looking pocket pistol? I'm scared and strangely attracted to it at the same time... kinda like a cute punk chick with a mohawk, nose rings and tattoo sleeves!

Waldo, I think I would develop a need for one really quick were I in your shoes!

Boy, there are SO many things I want... I think y the top of the list is a 357 lever action to go with the Ruger new model Blackhawk... and a 308 ar, and a 6.5 Swedish to hack up and make into a deer rifle for my girl!

Well we went to the range today instead of yesterday, but the results were as predicted... she liked the ar in 300 AAC... I might look into getting her into a lighter version than mine... maybe a carbon fiber hand guard and a pencil barrel... that should lighten it up pretty significantly...

I'm taking her out today to shoot the ar in 300blk, well see how that goes. My ar is a bit of a hog though, if I end up making her one, I'll do it with all ultra light parts...

Thanks for the advice guys! I'll see what I can find locally, might have to go to gunbroker to find what looking for though, like I said in the first post, it's the fit and weight of the gun, not the recoil that gives her fits. She's a tough girl, she shots my 1911 with 230gr loads all day and...

So my girlfriend is a bit on the small side, 5'1 115lbs, and has a hard time shooting my 30-06. Not so much on the recoil side of things, but the size of it... it's a wood stocked sporterized 1917 and it's fairly heavy. I'm looking for opinions on caliber and brands. I was thinking a 308 or...
