Once again, the GPR is made by Investarms.  With a few minor details, it and the Investarms Hawken are identical except the GPR is iron mounted and the Hawken is brass mounted.  About 25 years ago a MS dealer had a 3 kit deal, so I bought 3 of them.  Built 2 for my sons and sold the 3rd one.  This is one of them.  I added a toeplate and a different T-gard.  Stained with CRO3 and wet sanded back using the sludge as a grain filler.  Finished with tung oil.

As I mentioned earlier I have now been out shooting my GPR a few times and it is very reliable and has proven to be very accurate . So even though it is aesthetically not where I would like it to be it does seem to be a solid shooter . I did replace the ramrod with a Delrin plastic rod from TOW.
