...or how unnecessary such "conversions" would be without politicians infringing upon our Rights. Shall Not Be Infringed.

Being sporterized is going to kill the value. Check Gunbroker.

I built an AMD-65 awhile ago before pistol braces were available. That thing's fun. L O U D though. It competes with my 50BMG for noise. The AMD brake is designed to be loud.

KX3 Flaming Pig? What??? No single port brake? I guess you don't want the HUGE KABOOM! I swap brakes depending on what I feel like that day. Anything from a linear comp to a single port "loudener" type brake.

Nice looking gun. Once you use it, you may not want to change anything. I did a similar build, and got a 22 kit for it as well. It's a real pleasure to shoot with the 22 kit. Quick handling. I can keep poly targets rolling at distance with it no problem.

True. Not much going on. My main focus right now isn't shooting. I have things that need taken care of before I can play. I'd like to get my Tromix Saiga 12 out again. After things settle down.....

I got mine for historical significance, then discovered it's a great shooter. You'll like it. You'll want to get a bunch of the 17rd KRD mags and a loader. They work well and don't cost a fortune.

Merrels are top notch too. They last me about 5 years of daily wear and are very comfortable. They've got waterproof hikers that are very solid. Lightweight too,

Yes, it works just fine.

Sorry to hear. A burst pipe is never fun. Get yourself some Evapo Rust. That stuff is magic at stripping rust, bluing without touching the metal. I've even derusted coil springs with it. After stripping, derusting, get some Oxpho Blue from Brownell's and some fine plastic abrasive pads. Degrease with alcohol and rub the blue in. Looks like factory blue when done.

Nice save. Those are nice little rifles. I'll bet its very accurate, now that it's been properly cleaned. A lot of people don't take proper care of things. Idiots.

Justins are good sturdy comfortable boots, and they're made in USA. I think their Warhawk WK261 would do you well. I have owned a pair of Justins for years and they're some of the best boots I've owned.

You're welcome.
