I bought this rifle in the 1980s as a rusted up piece of junk with no buttstock from a farmer. I stripped it down, made this butt stock and hung it on the wall in my gunshop. There is stayed 30 years until now when I finally decided to start a quest to see if I could find all the parts. Well I did and here it is. It still needs some parts and another 10 hours or so to finish finishing the buttstock, but it's shootable.
I've been about to wet my pants to prove the barrel and this am the monsoons abated long enough to slip down to the backyard range for a go at it.
9/16" group at 25 yards with iron sights ain't bad, not to mention I'm a right handed shooter learning to shoot left handed at 65 yo. I'm as tickled as a kid at Christmas.
Mark another basket case off the list.
