It has been a long time coming but I finally put down the deposit for a <span style="color: #FF0000">Skunkworks Infidel</span>. The long time coming is I am a left eye dominate shooter but I have been shooting right handed rifles for years. Until one day I got a Left Handed Remington 700 VS from Kenco Arms and my life changed. What a joy it was to shoot a lefty for a change. Then I got it in my head that I needed a left handed tactical rifle and went looking for someone to build it for me.
I did research on builders on the Hide and after seeing the Infidel pictures from Mike Bush of <span style="color: #FF0000">Skunkworks</span> I decided to go for it in a left handed build. First off let me say that Mike is a great guy to deal with. I am not sure how he does it but he is wired all the time on the computer. He is very communicative even when he is traveling. My hats off to him and his work ethic.
I have a tour coming up in Iraq in January 2011 and will be gone until September some time so I will get it about the time I am leaving but I think I will be able to shoot it a couple of times before I leave...I hope. I have all the accessories ready for the build so when I get it I will be heading to the range shortly there after. This is the first time that I actually have all the items needed to get it working. I am usually missing something big like the optics and hoping the wife will let me get that next.
If you are looking for a new build take some time and look at Skunkworks - Mike is good people in my book.
