Yes, you are finally right about something.

I bet that plastic bolt shroud, plastic magazine, plastic trigger guard, and that free floating chunk of aluminum they call a "recoil lug" must require the utmost in machining skill/labor/time/cost. No doubt justifying the Tikkas higher price tag, as compared to other entry level rifles. I mean they gotta have a solid 5� into the "recoil lug" alone.

The [bleep]**er probably requires LESS machining than any other centerfire rifle in existence.

Let's not forget the bolt stop for "short actions", either.

Congratulations on proving yourself completely clueless to the masses.

And congratulations on finding a gunsmith as completely inept about rifles as you are. Sounds like a match made in dumbf**k heaven.......


At least you have a good attitude about it. wink


It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.
