Hi Fellas,
I was gonna wait until this rifle was completely done, but I didn't.
I call this rig the Canadian Deer Stalker. This little jewel in the rough came to me with a horrible 18.5" barrel chop, and no front sight. The blue is in nice condition, didn't seem to have been shot much, if at all. The receiver, bolt, carrier, & trigger group matches, so the fire control group is GTG. The the muzzle was faced, & an 11* crown done, and there was enough stock muzzle tip left to put on a neutered front sight globe. On this rifle I went with a Mojo rear sight. I like it, it's quick, and handles nice. The mag didn't match so I put an unnumbered 5 rounder on, then put the whole she-bang in a Butler Creek stock. I still have to cold blue the muzzle. Other than the barrel length, coulda come from an importer like this, and there were commercial 18.5" SKSs produced. It's a keeper. PAX
