No one knows how many mistakes there are but I can assure you that before you make the 'Perfect' rifle you will have made each and everyone of them. Some more than once.

I am reminded of a carpenter friend of mine who was told that his customer expected a perfect result.

He responded that he did not do perfect, but only he knew where the mistakes were.

Anyone care to guess how many unfinished guns I have?

This thread has inspired me to get back in the shop.

Not one more than the last mistake, that about ought to do it. ;D
