Frankenrifle! Project in progress...

[jmoore]

Some detail shots, since I'm fooling around fixing broken photobucket links. I'll abuse your sensibilities some more! I think most of these were on pg 3, but the posts had no text, so I deleted them. Added descriptions this time, so I hope y'all aren't too annoyed.

Lowest practical stock setting. Works fine w/ the original irons, if installed.


A high scope mount setting for use w/ HUGE optics:


Attachment interface. Really, it's too wide, but I narrowed it at least twice. Will rethink this some on the next go. Serrations are 10 per inch:










If you look carefully, you will note that the rear sight and the rear sight base were both lightened. It adds up, but lots of time, ciphering and cutting required!



I even hogged out the innards of the adapter. the stock assembly actually ended up weighing. w/in a few ounces of a GI standard stock.



Getting started on Gen 2 Frankenrifle this week, so more horrors await!
