The most i'll probably get is a set of cheap 1/2 inch drive ratchet extensions from harbor freight. About 8 bucks worth.

And his son has absolutely no idea what's coming.  This is going to be good.  I can hardly wait.

The old blown out Underwood barrel stamped 1943. It had to go.

Thanks for posting that.  I was happy that the rifle was in such excellent condition, but sad that the barrel was replaced.  Since they never used corrosive ammunition, the carbine barrels held up extraordinarily well in use.  In my experience, it's kind of rare to find them without the original barrels.  This one, not so much, but in order to stay functional, the history of the original barrel and receiver combo had to be ended.  It's a beautiful piece.  Happy shooting!

Arguably you are the most generous man in North America.  We'll have 3 cheers for Fluffy, lads.  Hip.

I did it for me and not for him.  I don't have any children and now I can live vicariously through this carbine.
