I have no problem with someone parting out a pre-64.
If you look at the big picture you have to consider that tearing down one plain vanilla 1960 30-06 may keep a dozen others running with original parts.
My 270 has a replacement barrel and replacement stock both from parted out rifles.
Three messed up rifles combined to make one very nice one.
Carry on.


I like it here. They let me swear.
