Exceptional!

Gives you great versatility in mounting choices; the rear hole on the front ring looks like it will run down the face of the lug recess - hopefully it lines up with the split in the lug.

I see the high bid is $50.00.......about $50 too much for a tomato stake

I had a small ring Polish Mauser that had 11 off center holes drilled in it. I had them TIG'd up and the action heat treated. It came out nice but I haven't made anything on it yet. I think that action didn't cost me anything.

Interesting. I owned that once and sold it. I sent it to rem721 to be drilled and tapped and it came back that way. He charged me $65 to do it so that's a bargain at $50.00

I suppose that if you took the barrel off the receiver, the barrel would make a great jack handle.


Don't ask me what happened, when I left Viet Nam, we were winning.

You lying cunt!

Any one that knows me knows two things, no, three:

1st, I'd never touch a La Coruna action

2nd, a piece of shite like that never left my shop

3rd, I'd never have worked on any of your stuff.

Now, go get stuffed!

Try to look unimportant. Your enemy might be low on ammo.

I brought home a TIG welder last night.
I could weld up those holes are redrill and tap.

But would not bid on that auction. I got some military La Coruna receivers [with C ring, not H ring] for $7.50/ea at a gunshow, with no holes.

The Spanish arsenal which later went on to manufacturer the abomination known as the Santa Barbara. Known for a serious lack of QC. Jeffe would be right at home there, perhaps even overqualified. Well, on second thought, they might even fire him. jumping

721 tried to sell me the same, multiple base holes all off center, he called it his "adjustable" base system for when you ran out of scope clicks. I passed.
