Ingwe: I want to resurrect this because I want to ask: did you have the forearms shortened on your Ingwe Special or just leave it alone? Also, who did the work? Just send me a PM if you'd rather not post it publically. Thanks. Mike "An archer sees how far he can be from a target and still hit it, a bowhunter sees how close he can get before he shoots."

RevMike Campfire Tracker R Joined: Dec 2012 Posts: 4,847	Originally Posted by ingwe Yeah, you can use the irons�they are sighted for 175s... I'm still debating whether or not to use a M70 (maybe a Cabela) or my M98 for an "African" build. So far I'm leaning towards the latter. I'll have to ask a stock maker if it's easier to covert a Monte Carlo or "pig back" into one of those WRs some of us are drooling over. Any thoughts?
