ScrollcutterWiebe's other 22 Mas Finished-New Photos
Duane's customer wanted just a touch of English scroll and border work applied to his rifle. He also wanted the rifle to reflect it's Mauser heritage with a Mauser banner on the buttplate along with some cross hatching so the buttplate doesn't feel slippery on the shoulder.
I will post more photos of the project as I complete them in real time.

RockdocGreat work.
Doing that cross hatching would be difficult looking at it!
Cheers, Chris

ScrollcutterHere's a couple more photos.
Action proper (stippled) with cross hatched scope mounts.
Rear sight leaves...there's platinum lines in there. Honest!

NortmanI had a BRNO mod 1 I was very intent on making a fine custom out of. Just like this!
Stupidly I sold it in a week moment!
New owner, chopped barrel and stock, installed suppressor, painted it in cammo colours..
It made me sick for a few days after finding out..

bwanamrmThat will be one damn fine .22!
On the plains of hesitation lie the bleached bones of ten thousand, who on the dawn of victory lay down their weary heads resting, and there resting, died.
If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch...
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!
- Rudyard Kipling

How is a buttplate like this made? Is it cast or is the detail cut? Incredible.

DCnIdahoThey are actually cast out of a polymer material.

458WinHere is how Mauser did it on their EB 340/350 series of 22's. Nice but not quite a classy as Duane's
Anyone who claims the 30-06 is ineffective has either not tried one, or is unwittingly commenting on their own marksmanship

Ah, I was thinking it was cut metal. Still, a perfect example.
