OK Im good with building. I talked to a Gunsmith today about restocking, He agreed in concept but wont commit till he sees the action. So now Im looking for donors.

I was toying with the idea of a 12ga, sleeved for 45-70? Its not my first choice but it is the most easily found parts. Im NOT fixated on 12ga or 45-70.

Ultimately I want either an under lever or a side lever.
