yanno, the best thing about building such a firearm (from the standpoint of the builder) is the likely hood that piece of him, or her will be around 100 years from now admired by someone.
I had a mauser built probably by some guild type apprentice in europe around 1930ish. gorgeous. one of those hand filed big military round barrels to an octagon, solid ramps for the sights. engraved, simple thin style stalking design stock.
no name, no way to tell who did it. once we figured out the 8mm bore was not what we were told, it shot great, spot on at 50 meters, 100 meters and 150 meters to the hand filed fixed, 3 leaf site.
post away, post away.
