Last winters project for this fall hunt. Reblued a very rusty and severely pitted early rifle in 35 Rem. The bore had a very bad ring a few inches from the muzzle so it made a great project piece . The new stocks will be complete but not until after the deer hunt (about half done now ). Groups about 3 inches at 75 yards which is better than I thought .

Re: SRC
The blue is the only part I can't take credit for. Hours and hours of hand polishing to remove most of the deep pits. Don't know if I would do that part again, but never say never. My smith then gave it his best to make it look presentable.

Re: SRC
Who did the detachable mag conversion and what's up with the saddle ring?

Re: SRC
As a collector of JMBrowning guns, I own many Winchester saddle ring carbines. I find this custom addition quite tasteful.I only wish that Remington had done it themselves originally. I would definitely be interested in knowing how and where you decided to locate it within the receiver.
Thanks for your time

Re: SRC
Everything except the blue was done by myself. I like looks of any SRC,so I added one for the "cool factor". The detachable magazine has a very positive release that is easily used with a gloved hand . No more fumbling when it minus twenty!

Re: SRC
Who did the blueing
Just for the record I really appreciate your skill with doing the mag release. I've a 32R with a single mag that releases, I'm also curious about the detail of getting the mags to fit in the conversion. I have 3 candidates for mine. I noted the type of magazines you used in the conversion.
