Re: 308 Win shorty remix

PS: No guns were harmed during the course of this shooting.

Haven't tested it yet buddy. We finished this up late Friday night. Saturday was out due to weather. Today we farted around with the cupid stuff.
We'll do some chootin Monday.

Comparing before/after wouldn't of been possible with this gun because the components weren't matched. This stock went to a barreled action other than what the cst supplied. We just went through all of it again to make it work.

Re: 308 Win shorty remix
We ordered the equipment for making our own stencils earlier this week.
If this baby works we'll have some killer options for paint.
Kallis anxious to give it hell and try it out.

Need to know if you want a case for this now that its done. Saw some nice lookin shorty cases at Scheels last night for around 150..

Re: 308 Win shorty remix
Chad was the case a Pelican or a Storm? If so then yes lets do that, if not lets just go with a Plano or another one of the $25.00 cases and a good heavy box around that.

Re: 308 Win shorty remix
Derrick,
They have several now that it's Christmas time. One that's pretty nice is a "Scheels" brand. (big sporting goods company around these parts)
It's a metal framed case with a sort of cordura nylon upholstered shell. All black. Has metal hinges/hardware. Egg crate foam inside.
Runs around $150.00 for the double case. I'd have to check to see if they make smaller one for your stick.

Chad, no thanks on the case described I like to stick with the Storm and Pelicans as they have never let me down. Just Throw her in a cheap plastic case and a box and that will be fine.

What'd you end up going with? I'm still waiting for Pam's brother to get back to me with specs on his machine. I think it was a lot bigger than I remember. Might cost a lot to ship half way around the world. Take care.

What I would not give to be a fly on the wall of C. Dixon's shop and watch all the cool stuff being done.

Re: 308 Win shorty remix
Fly might not be the best choice.
They had a high mortality rate in here during the summer. I've become a bit of a ninja with a can of carb cleaner and a bic.
Scorches the wings right off the little bastards.

Re: 308 Win shorty remix
I was messing with my rifle while looking through this thread... and it committed suicide in my hands. When I am ready to move on maybe I can have another kind of like this one. I really like the way the snub noses look, be great with a suppressor.

Re: 308 Win shorty remix
Nice work. Like the paint scheme. It looks alot like our R Bros camo stencils. Combined a few different patterns into one.
