Very nice! More pics please.
I went the eBay route and with a large amount of patients I was able to get what I needed for what I was willing to pay. Don't get in a bidding war and only bid what you are willing to pay and...
I've used their 223 and 9mm. Seems about the same as Wolf as far as cleanliness and accuracy.
Nice Fin!
