Not bad for a project that was conceived in February, started in March, and delivered May 7. Everything went very smoothly and what a spectacular color case hardening job. But check out the pictures.
Fot those that haven't seen the previous threads, It's a copy of a hi-wall with some improvements and changes. Chambered for 38-55. Baldwin tang and globe sights, and scope blocks to accept a Lyman Super Target Spot scope.

Beautiful job John. When I get rich and semi-famous, I'd love to get a scope like that. OH WELL, such is life!

Ed, there was a Super Target Spot at the last Nappanee gun show I believe. He only wanted $500 for it. I got mine a long time ago for much less.
John, that sure looks good. When's the range report so we can get REAL envious?
