Looks like Bubba was on a 4 day meth binge and after painting his car "woodland camo" with rattle cans moved on to "improve" his firearms.
Remember kids.... Just say NO.!

Its amazing what some folk will do to improve the accuracy of a rifle....

They really aren't on the same planet are they?

That number on it...isn't it a stock number? Like an inventory number? It's not a SS number or OAP number? The reason I suggest is...we had an FN C1 like that in the battalion, an individual had simply taken it to have it chromed and turned into a trophy for the marksmanship every year. Now, he DID just about go to jail for it when the head armourer found out...but it had a number very much like that.

It has 3 more numbers then a SSN#, we know isn't that..

He said the bolt would not close but it might just need a different bolt head. Maybe if he just turned the bolt head all the way in it close! Was at a gun show where a dealer hade a nice SMLE but it was overpriced. Same thing bolt was not screwed in all the way and would not close. He thought it was broken. Fixed it for him then realizied that if I hadn't I might have gotten a much better price!

[mrbungle]

i don't know how many times i see the " bolt won't close all the way" statement...
