That is a lot of elbow grease. Looks very nice...

My son really wants to build one of these kits. You did a great job My parents kept the one dad and I built 40 yrs ago at 16 in the back of a closet. She gave it to me before passing. I really was bad at finishing that thing but it’s a prized possession.

My son really wants to build one of these kits. You did a great job I got my kit off gunbroker for $150 if you decide to get one to do with your son shoot me a PM I'll send you the laurel mountain barrel brown and tru oil stock finishing kit I used there is still enough to do another gun or two. best thing to do is let the kid sand and polish all the brass, inlettingthe stock and shaping it to fit flush with all the pieces is a PITA and you only get one chance to get it right. you can always take more away but you cant put it back. then let him rub the oil coats on it'll take 2 weeks to do the oil finish right and about a week to rust brown the barrel.
