Here's my new project rifle for gunsmithing school. I am going to document as best as I can, all my work done to this rifle over the next year or so.
For now, just a new bolt knob, aluminum firing pin shaft and SS pin, upgraded spring, and aluminum anodized shroud.
Base rifle, got for $350
Upgraded firing pin, shaft, spring, and aluminum shroud
Bolt knob prep
10-32 hardened steel stud installed
My sako extractor jig I made.
Phoenix 4 groove knob, not tapped and screwed on yet
Next will be a Sako style extractor, then blasting and Cerakote
Total price so far: $351
Hope you enjoy this project as it comes along.
