1942 Savage MkI Project

[tlvaughn]

Below are a few pics of my 1942 Savage MkI project rifle. I had before pictures; however, I had to replace my hard drive last Friday after it crashed. A national electronics chain was unable to retrieve the data and told me it would cost over $2,000 to send it out. Luckily a friend of the family does this for a living and is confident that some data can still be retrieved.

Enough about my computer. The bad news was that the somebody turned it into a sporter, so I had to replace all of the wood and most of the metal. The catch was missing and the backsight axis pin was broken. The good news was that the serial numbers on the receiver, bolt and magazine all matched (although the magazine is a replacement).

I know that not all of the parts are 100% correct; however, it is in much better shape today than when I rec'd it.
