[QUOTE="aarondhgraham, post: 4194055, member: 13337"] That's so true,,, But I don't think my friend will be toting it around. When we go to my rifle/pistol range together,,, He's mainly shooting from a bench rest,,, Trying to chase those tiny little groups. He doesn't know I'm doing this for him,,, So I'll be subtle as I query him for his likes and dislikes. Here's the back-story if you are interested. We were co-workers at the university that I retired from,,, We've been good friends for about 15 years now. My friend has earned a gift in my eyes,,, I was recently diagnosed with prostate cancer,,, We caught it early so within 2 weeks of the diagnosis,,, I went in for a surgery that had me laid up for several weeks after. He has ferried me to and from many doctor's appointments,,, Often using up his own sick leave to get off from work. He's also my lifeline making sure I'm okay on a daily basis,,, I text him in the morning and late in the evening,,, If he doesn't get those texts he calls me. The one time I forgot to text and didn't hear his call,,, He was on my porch within an hour,,, Making sure I wasn't dead. Anyways I have always wanted to try my hand at building a custom rifle,,, So I sold two Colts I had to raise the money for this project,,, This just seemed like a perfect opportunity for me. I scratch an itch to build a rifle,,, My friend gets a tack-driver (I hope) made just for him. Aarond . [/QUOTE]
