FC Posted October 30, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2005 What you have to have is a picture hosting site such as www.picturetrail.com I know there are others, but don't know the hosting services right off. On picture trail what I have to do is go to "find URL's", I right click on the URL, click "copy", then paste it here. I know Yahoo supports picture hosting too. I would prefer posting regular gun pictures on "Hobbies and Pictures" forum, unless it is a sporterized rifle, which could go here, or, say, if a Mauser in original condition, under the Mauser forum.

swamp_thing Posted November 6, 2005 Report Share Posted November 6, 2005 Terry, That is one beautiful receiver there. I really like the way it looks. Also, hylander7, you have a fine looking set of rifles there as well. I am as some of you already know partial to the MN's swamp_thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Guest_AzRednek_* Posted November 7, 2005 Report Share Posted November 7, 2005 TEASE!!?? I'm drooling on my keyboard, your photo borders on pornagraphic!! BS aside , nice job, please post the finished product and hopefully the group censor will allow it. I'm not only envious of your action but covet your artistic skills as well.

Guest Guest Posted November 7, 2005 Report Share Posted November 7, 2005 Custom mounts should fit better than that. Look at the gap on the front ring. Custom mounts should practically appear seemless. The recoil shoulder of the rear mount should be at the front and not the rear of the base. The rings will want to move forward under recoil not backward. Still, a very nice piece of work from an artistic standpoint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swamp_thing Posted November 7, 2005 Report Share Posted November 7, 2005 I have looked at the mounts and as far as the recoil shoulder on the rear mount, if you look at the one on the front it faces the opposite direction, therefore the scope is not going to move forward or backwards. The guy has a beautiful rifle in the making there and I would be damn proud to own it. swamp_thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eldora Posted November 7, 2005 Report Share Posted November 7, 2005 Mighty fine! That's an inspiration for that Mexican action I've been wanting to get started on. Maybe I should ask Santa for a lathe? Seriously... very, very nice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rear shoulder is there to hold scope if it gets bumped from the front. Most people that build these never take that into consideration. Warne, Talley and the guy that built these think it's important, So do I. Please share some of your's with us. Terry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FC Posted November 7, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2005 That is the nicest, cleanest receiver I have ever seen, period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guest Posted November 7, 2005 Report Share Posted November 7, 2005 Here is a picture of the pattern I built for it. It started out as a BRNO 21H small ring stock. I had to stretch and widen it in the action area, I made it 1" longer in the forearm, I shortened the grip by 1/2" and took a full 1" of drop out of the butt. Needless to say there is more bondo there than wood . It's being turned right now, I should have it back in a couple of weeks. Here is the blank I'm useing. It's a very nice piece of Turkish Circassian. I'll keep you guy's posted as the project progresses. Terry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guest Posted November 7, 2005 Report Share Posted November 7, 2005 Terry, It's a beautiful rifle for sure. But, didn't Mike Scherz do the metal work? You seem to be giving the impression that you did the work. It will look very good in that circassian that's for sure. Congrats on a fine rifle. 9.3x62? Nice caliber too.

Nice caliber too. 6542[/snapback] Please show me where I said I did the metal work! David Gentry did most of what you see and Micheal Sherz did the bases. I built the stock pattern and Jeff Smith will be turning the blank. I purposely didn't want to drop names as it's Mr. Gentry took 1 1/2 yrs to do the barreled action and Michael Scherz keep the gun for over a year. He has recently moved to Phoenix and wait times will be longer in the future. Again, please tell me where I gave you the impression I did the work? Got anything you want share with us or do you just want to argue with me? Terry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FC Posted November 7, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2005 Brad, to post pictures you have to have a hosting service. My wife uses Yahoo Photos. She said after hesitation that you can find a URL to post a link. What hosting services are the rest of you using? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flaco Posted November 7, 2005 Report Share Posted November 7, 2005 "Tease" is right, Terry- You're shameless. I'm not certain I've ever seen an '09 action that clean. Is the magazine/triggerguard commercial, or just the straddle plate? This is "TC1," right? Good to see you posting here, Terry. flaco N.B. Please register and join the fun!
