    Yup, the Mk II Ross rifles tend to really blow out the shoulders on brass.

    Ah..another lover of wayward mutts. :thup:

    Nice score. I would have picked up that Mosin as well, as rifles like that call to me at the shows too. And assuming they're checked out, I certainly...

    I spent a portion of the past weekend with Rob at the BMF Alberta shoot. Great fun. He indicated he has four projects in the queue so there will be more great videos to come.

    Hank usually has a bunch of his various repro clearing rods at the big Easter show here in Calgary, not usually at the smaller shows, though.

    Congrats on the purchase. They are a bit hard to come by. The break at the wrist is quite common as, apparently, many were deliberately broken at that point to render them 'deactivated'. Any markings...
