An incomplete mockup. The rifle was evidently D&T for the EGW base with 8x40 screws, which are too short for this base and I don't have any spares lying around. (Also can't figure out where the buttplate screws went.) All my 1903 stuff is going on consigment eventually but I figured it would be...
Was it because of the insurance or other reasons? My position is that I'm not fond of going through a third party for tracking and I don't want to make yet another account.
Could someone with experience tell me what the deal is with the shipping protection Triad Tactical uses? Am I signing up for some third party thing by using it?
I wonder how many decades old rimfires are out there that have never required spare parts?
Side question, for those of you that have a left handed Vudoo, is the bolt throw short enough to run it right handed without interfering with manipilation?
It's more because bolt action design goes back way further than the use of aluminum in firearms construction and the standard designs would not survive long made out of aluminum. It's not typically a matter of sophisticated maching as much as it is a matter of redesigning the mechanism.
