Took entirely too long to finish this and post pictures

But after finally getting caught up on the "to do" list after getting back and coming home a little early today due to a work partial holiday I had a small set of brown eyes asking if we could make her rifle all pink today. Obviously there's only one responsible response to that.

So it all started with a picture from last summer.


Someone was entirely too kind and sent a little swag.


Tried with a brass pin first.


Needed more hammer, couldn't find my plastic hammer so had to substitute with mom's junk drawer screwdriver handle.


She was an old pro at some parts of this project because she's the one that installed this furniture.


So I don't have MarkF's skill. I found that trying to hold parts of a trigger in a lower, provide instructions and use the ipotato was too much...so only a limited pictures of the assembly


She insisted that I would not get the pins perfect (I may have made a big deal about it up front to emphasize the importance of the job )


Very happy little girl, trust me the smile is there


So figured Mark would want this quote exactly as she said it:
"That trigger is way nicer than my old one, was my old one broken"

Good job Mark.

Out-bloody-standing.
Kudos to Mark for the awesome swag (obviously someone who really likes his customers)!
Kudos to sea2summit for doing some real parenting instead of letting the village raise her!
And kudos to the little lady for taking care of her own business!

So much win!.
Another election, another chance for voters to royally screw up.
As always, I will vote based on a single issue: Freedom.
Good luck, America. We'll need it.
