I finished the NPM restoration today after some 6 months of rounding up a stock and correct parts. Paul I. mentored me through the process and came up with many parts. Without his help I never would have been able to finish this project and I am greatly appreciative of his patience and tutelage. Regards, Rick.
Great looking Carbine Rick. Beautiful Stock! You did Very Well.
I wish I had that stock!!!:bitch:
Hello Bill. I ran an ad on the CMP forum and about two weeks later a super neat guy sent me a PM with pictures and the stock looked real good. It wasn't until it arrived that I was astounded by the amazing condition. You just never know. I looked for an early Remington 03 RLB stock for 5 years and one popped up like magic.......don't give up! Regards, Rick.Quote:

You're a man after my own heart, great job! Here's my NPM I restored about 5 years ago, don't think I've posted it.
Hardest part was waiting to find the Buffalo Arms 9-43 barrel to replace the 8-44 Underwood that was on the carbine.

Great job, LE. I am having a blast restoring these old rifles. My next project may be a late Winchester. Regards, Rick.
It really is fun, so far I've restored 2 six digit Inlands (one in an M1A1 repro stock), an early 1943 Winchester, Rockola, Underwood, Standard Products, the NPM, Saginaw SG and a Quality Hardware. All I need now is an IBM and an S'G'Quote:
