Thanks Dan, yea, that's the thing about AM's gun. As far as I'm concerned if they're perfect they should be in their birthday suit, architecturally speaking.....

Just because a rifle doesn't have carving, inletting, etching, inlays, toe plate, entry thimble, or a butt plate doesn't make it any less a rifle. Simple elegance with classic lines now that's my kind of rifle.
