Just wanted to give a big thanks to all who came, especially those who made it possible. NorthWestAR and his friend Nathan had the tools and know how to get us moving. Our host had a great set up for us and was wonderful in many ways. I know I received a ton of help and am very grateful for it. My firing Romanian G rifle also thanks you. If there is enough interest I think we could run another one in about 3-4 weeks but let's give things a break and let those hard workers who helped us out so much have a breather.

I'd like to throw a thank you out to everyone too.  Looking at different dura-coat finishes and all psyched to test fire a completed rifle at the next go-around and then get them painted after that.  I'm going to get the wood refinished too before the next meet.



I'll probably bring the stuff to heat-treat them, and finish all riveting next time.



If anyone needs more bending, I can bring my metal break next time too.  It might help to get the sides folded a tad more after the press bending.

Still massively bummed I couldn't make it.  Really glad to hear it went great, can't wait for another one so I can join in!

+1 on pics. I've been shopping around for a 74 kit (still can find one sub-$900) and would love to learn from some guys who have done some building.

I was too slow to get a parts kit, wish I'd gone, sounds like a lot of fun.

Glad I was able to help others get further along.
It was fun and looking forward to doing it again and would enjoy working on some 74's.
