VA - thanks. We'll see if it makes meat soon... I've got an appetite for some late season hasenpfeffer.
MMPsteve - Yours looks much better than the one I started with. The metal on mine looked like it had been blasted with something very coarse and parkerized. They must have made a tarted-up version by the look of yours with its better (and checkered) stock, etc. Besides the ubiquitous plastic butt plate, you have to like the fact that the only two ingredients in these little guys are walnut and steel. As far as the draw bolt, I remember the tennon being an M5, but the head is a 1/2" hex. Slip the socket on your 12" extension and you�re in business. Hope this helps,
Ian
