I wish I could have bought you a new Ramline stock set or traded you a new birch stock set before you bubbed up that nice walnut stock.

That's not Bubba'd.

Let me show you how to properly Bubba up a gun....

Very nice work. You should be proud. I love the little .22 first rate.

Nope - let the record show, I am interested just in the stocks.
Recopnizing the overall craft as it is, though.

Regards.

Well I am in serious lust.

The sling/barrel band to help retain the mag tube is a super neat idea! And...aw, heck, just love the whole thing!

That little rifle could serve more purposes than a hound dog.

He's got me thinking of making a Trapper out of a 1962 Model 94 30-30 that I've got. Unless I can sell/trade it for a Marlin 45-70, .44 Mag. or .357 Mag.

I just read an interesting article on converting a 30-30 to .308 Win. Interesting concept though kind of "already done" with the .307 Win.
