Getting things underway. I have the prototype action machined and semi-polished. I made a mistake on the rough machining stage by not leaving enough material for the finish machining. It left me with deeper than necessary tool marks to file and stone out. Next up will be the trigger group block, monoblock and forend iron. I plan to work on them over the weekend.

Here are a couple of pictures. Hope you enjoy, and let me know what you think. BTW, it is just under 1.5" from top of the fences to the bottom of the action. .410 sized overall.
