Yep! Between my birthday (last week), Father's Day, and my wife nonchalantly introducing a new puppy to the house, I pulled the trigger on a Ruger Gunsite Scout in .308. It should arrive next week sometime. The lefty versions have been missing for quite a while. When one showed up, first thing I did was click Ship, then I sat around trying to decide whether or not to order it. I find sometimes doing things in that order helps! As a FYI - a few years ago my nephew-in-law brought over an old Parker and Hale 25/06. His dad bought it from a neighbor - a widowed woman whose husband had passed. This thing is old, but beautiful and it came with an old hard shell case. One day I pulled the foam inserts from that case and lying underneath was a Christmas gift tag. It read... To: Lester, From: Lester. I thought that was way cool!

Tempted to order up a B&C replacement stock for my model 70 extreme sporter (blued/black nitride version of the extreme weather), just to spiff up looks of the gun.
The original stock is the same model B&C medalist stock in standard black.....black on black....not very sexy...
.so to spice things up with a little contrast ....will run around 3fiddy $$$......same stock model, different color/spider webbing.
At which point I'll have 5 empty original stocks in my black synthetic rifle stock museum.....one of which will be worth 3fiddy $$$.......
Probably wont happen.

I may finish a build for Fathers Day, I have a couple, 3 or six in progress. I did find a used Gilmore 2 MOA dot for a 16" 223 AR-15 truck gun, I need to finish that by sighting it in.
