Other ideas are to file the trigger guard to a more sporter style, like the Daniel Fraser style and the Bolt stop. I like the shotgun style and I think I can pull it off. Good thing is I can always order replacements if I Obama it up! that is what I love about it, that first cut of a file is so intense and then once you are committed. Anything goes! (of course, you may end up with a Ginormous Phallic rifle stock, which, may or may not be a bad thing)!
