Re: Officer carbine

I like the balance of these little carbines. Here is another one that I assembled from parts.
I restore martial arms, and found that I had an accumulation of take off non military parts in the bins. so....

This one has a BSA commercial receiver.


I cut and drawfiled the rifle barrel to carbine length and taper.
I made the forestock out of a table leg of an antique dining table.
That old growth walnut is impossible to find as lumber these days.
The stock now that it has been oiled is a perfect colour/grain match to that of the original 100 year old butt stock.

To satisfy my OCD, I am replacing all the martial marked bits with commercial as I find them.
