Another Conversion!

I converted another gun and a shooter as well! A friend was admiring one of my 1022 builds. I noticed he was beginning to get sweaty palms over the entire experience so before it progressed to a religious experience with him I suggested a trip to print some paper.

End of story...He's Cooked, Hooked..Addicted...Totally absorbed!:D

So I built this for him!

Barracuda Stock in camo which I hand finished with 15 coats of my special "proprietary blend";)
Extended Mag Release
Auto Bolt Release
Trigger job via Power Custom comp hammer to a crisp 2.75 lbs
Springs change out
BSA 4X16X40AO Target Scope w/ 4 inch lens shade His choice not mine
Hex stock screw for better torque and control
Bolt Buffer (PolyU)
Polished all mating surfaces including charging rod and exposed portion of bolt
This is a relatively lo dough gun which every newbie and even some wouldbee antis should shoot and own!:)

This will be a walk around gun until he opts for a bull barrel
The beauty of the stock is it's channeless..so one size fits all!
I sent this pic to him. He was to pick it up Tues but he's mysteriously moved up the date to tom!

Is this the easiest sell around or what?;)

That's one nice looking rifle. You showed him the picture and now he's got to have it. Just wait until he shoots it.

Bullseye,

If you like those barracuda's, you should take a quick peek over on RFC in the stock building section. They are showing off a pistol version of it that would be NFA legal, even with a rifle receiver, due to over-all length. I am thinking about it pretty hard, either with a GM heavy taper or an Aero. Heck, it may be enough of a reason to get me to pick up a Charger.

FWIW

Bullseye, As you may know I have many of these Barracudas but I also have a few EVO's. The Evos are ambidextrous and I actually favor that forend slightly.
