I finally found a stock for it at the Louisville show. So the partial restoration is done.

Nice wood on that rifle. Wish we could have them here always green with envy don't cost to dream I guess........!
Bit of the farm stuff L-R ~ looks like set of scarifiers guessing the green things on the left of them could be a set of discs, with what a 20 run seeder, set of moulboard ploughs.
When I was a farmhand up north I was pulling an 80 run seeder with a John Deere 215Hp 4X4 tractor but she certainly knew she had that behind her the shift on the run from 1st to 2nd was a blessing not like the Steiger Panther we had ploughing where you had to stop to change I was pulling 82 discs (John Shearer's 2 x 30 & 1 x 22 set) with her when you were doing your headlands you had to ensure you did not turn to tightly lest you turn the rear plough inside out. I still miss the land it was a 33,000 acre Wheat & Sheep property.

The only thing I do these days is plant 4 acres of Sunflowers for the birds and 4 acres of Radishes, Sugar Beets and Turnips for the deer. I own a 4010 gas and all those implements you see behind the Garand are antiques....just like me. I have a fried and his son that cash rent the 91 acres that's tillable. The other 80 acres is in CRP, treed ditches and 5 ponds. I also have a 50-100-250 and 400 yard range in my back yard.
