I’ve been wanting to ask you an only marginally related question. Knowing that many Ballards were converted as late as the 1950s into rimfire position rifles, I’m wondering whether you’ve ever spread your collection to include such an abomination, and if yes whether photos are available.
I got a block form Charlie Dell here in VA, a receiver and tang from Martin Rettig in CA, and a takeoff position rifle bull barrel from Jim Borton in Ohio. I originally planned to build a rim fire bench rifle for Schuetzen matches, but now I’m thinking of going off in another direction.
Any and all pix would be appreciated, not just from marlinman93, but if anyone else has such images.
