    Something to Think About

    If you have said I did not see it - how much of the rifle do you need to find to restore it and does the rifle have sentimental value or is it a rare bird. If sentimental value then the money you spend will be well spent even though you may not have rifle worth the sum of the parts. If it is a rare rifle and you restor something that cannot be found easily they your value will increase. For instance I found a complete stock set for under $100 for a friend so he can restore his fathers bring back that has had the stock burned. Another rifle I helped a fellow with was a sniper that needed the block and a stock. Cost for parts was like $300 but the rifle is now worth twice that. Just something to think about. riceone.
