L42 Style Build

Hi Guys,

I got some good quality Sutton taps and managed that part of it finally. I then got the pads soldered on and the scope alignment is not perfect but a few clicks and I'll be on the mark.

I got the metal parts bead blasted today and put the first application of rust bluing solution. This is time consuming, but the bead blasting and prep are the longest leg. And I should knock the bluing over in the next couple of days in a couple of 1.5 hour sessions. I use 3 applications and get a finish that I'm very happy with.

So I will make sure that the wood is ready to fit on Friday, and I should have a rifle to shoot on Saturday. We'll see
