Early A grade 16 project

Post by MilRob »

Just got a couple pictures of my early A grade with snap on forend back.  Stock is completed except for checkering and final assembly.  Had this gun done with an A grade blank.   Nothing super fancy with the wood.

I've got 300320 in the inventory. I believe yours is 300328. Mine is 28" Mod/Full, with snap on forearm, Krupp Steel barrels. They could be twins.

No pictures of the stock yet. Gun should be completed in the next month or two.
