Ora,

You've got an interesting rifle there.  While some purists look upon any altered rifle with disdain, I always wonder where and what the rifle saw in its travels from factory to finally ending up in our hands.  Each alteration was done for a reason, and while some may be better done than others, they are its history.  Personally, I would rather have ten "Shooters" rather than one "Safe Queen" to play with, but that is just me,,,,,.  Enjoy it for what it is,

butlersrangers,

As always, you do yourself and this forum the highest compliment.  Skol!
