Re: wifes mauser

Thanks for the compliments. Truthfully we haven't fired it yet. I just finished the stock recently and the weather hasn't exactly been cooperative for any range time.

Nice rifles! I used the same Richards thumbhole on a Sako A3 in 220 Rocket. Seemed to make sense since it was called the "wildcat" stock. It's my pride as i did the stock finish myself as you did. I fitted it to my hand/thumb/fingers/cheek so it fits perfectly. It is a joy to shoot.

Re: wifes mauser

they do make some great stuff. thats the great part of buying unfinished wood, you can work it till it fits. I took an inch off the but end to fit her and its still a bit long. I finished it with 30 coats of tung oil, the pics really don't do it justice. thanks again.

What would 30 coats of tung oil do for that carpet? JK

Great looking rifles.

Re: wifes mauser

lol... every time i post pics somebody mention the carpet. its actually dark red but the flash makes it look bright pink. I wouldn't be able to live with myself if my house was covered in pink carpet
