    Ouch. Looks brutal.

    I have a shotgun for hunting on the way as we speak. Still wanting a rifle as well.

    VERY nicely done! I have often toyed with the idea of making a 1917 Carbine. A couple years back I picked up an 03 Scout rifle that someone had built and that calmed the urge for the time being...

    I quite like mine. I stumbled into it cheap a few years back pre-done. Whoever built it apparently put some kind of red dot on it, and I am going to go that way with it myself. It is just about impossible to get eye relief correct and clear everything enough to use stripper clips to feed it. It has an old 2-7 Redfield pistol scope on it now with extension rings currently, but I am going to ditch all that and put a decent to good red dot on it. I may end up trimming down the rear of that mount just a little to get more clearance.

    That barrel looks very short. Is it less than 18”?

    Pretty short, but the stock is also a little long and that distorts the perspective. The barrel measures 16.75” to the start of the break, and just a touch over 18” with.

    HOLY NECRO POST!

    Do we know what breaks on a 7615p?
    I was into 10mm Auto before it sold out and went mainstream, but these days I'm here for the revolver and epidemiology information.

    Action bars and small bolt parts.

    That's not encouraging.

    Thanks.

    I tried to search the thread and didn't see it mentioned, so just connecting dots.

    Browning advertises it as 50-state-legal. May be outside the budget under discussion, but could work for others.
