I too called and spoke with RJ.
Man, I can't get this idea out of my head.
So much so, today I bought a tang safety Ruger M77RS in '06 so as to have a donor rifle on hand should I decide to go through with it. It's in like new condition, with the bluing 100%.
Both the Pre-war 77 and the Faux Rigby look awesome.
What to do
