Re: Project gun!
Here’s a few midway pictures… the metal is cleaning up great! They sure don’t make them like they used to. The stock is stained and drying……

Re: Project gun!
Great job
Bad timing because your putting me to shame.
I came across one the other I never finished....ok barely started.

Re: Project gun!
Well, it’s all cleaned up. I’m leaving the stock with a few dings and marks. It is now a serviceable, clean, lubed range ready 22.

Re: Project gun!
Fine looking rifle. You did it justice. Better than I could for sure, a few dings show character, it's been used not hanging on a wall or in a safe.

Re: Project gun!
Nice. This is making me want to find one. Had one as a kid, sold it for $50 some….30 ish years ago. Back then they were $75-80 at Kmarts

I did the same thing to a model 60, it looks great!
