    Chuck- I'm going to do the same thing in the near future. Will be a first for me. Any tips and additional pics would be greatly appreciated! Anybody got any pics of what an original looks like? Thanks, Mike D.

    i have an original to copy.
    the trick is practice on a junk stock first,.take your time...
    and use real measuring tools, or it will never look right.
    if you look, it has 2 types of cuts, one straight, and one angled.
    then the bolt handle notch.
