I'm trying to carve a seemingly epoxied but broken front bead,outta Sister's Superposed.

I've seen me goop up bases and rings. Lotsa folks are in a hurry to forget,that rifles don't shoot "tight"...they loosen schit. Have seen wayyyyyyyyyyy more base/ring failures,than I have mechanical issues attributed to the rifle proper and of course more scope pukes,than both combined. Tough to beat an extended 1913 rail,to circumvent all of that and (6) cap fasteners sure in the fhuqk IS soothin'. Never had either bobble,but I'm still trying. Mebbe today will be the day!?!(grin)

Much to be said,for connecting dots,right outta da' gate.
