If anybody is interested, I have information giving details of the former owner of my Boer War carbine, and also the amazing coincidences surrounding the Mauser Model B hunting rifle in this little movie.

Thanks man...you will be making my rifle very pretty...Next project up is finally the Savage Model 1899 in .30-30.
The stock fitting began a bit this evening. It will be slow going, but it's going to be a good looking rifle!

Oh My! I think I felt a twitch! That's gonna be one sexy rifle!
Going to do a Schnauble forend?
How about going a little more fancy and cutting it back at an angle and grafting a nice piece of ebony and carvin that into the Schnauble, No light spacers, and a thin ebony strip between the butt and the stock?It originally had one, but the forearm is so worn that it's almost gone. Debating on whether to keep the original or replace. I'm sure I can find one to match the replacement buttstock...
Yes, that's the ticket!
