Oldhoodoo1, I can't wait to see your pictures. I built a similar rifle on a drill rifle barelled receiver. The Brophy 1903 riflles book was a huge help for locating the rail. There is a small relief on the stock that is required for the rail. This is best done on a milling machine. Here's a link to the one I did: https://www.milsurps.com/showthread.php?t=49280 Salt Flat
