GMA switch barrel rifle project.
#275671 - 26/12/15 01:32 PM

I have a project going that I could use some help on.

I have Justin Sip building me a switch barrel rifle on a single square bridge GMA action. It has three barrels in 270 Winchester, 9.3x62 and 400 Whelen. I have three Swaorofski scopes, 2.5-15x44i, 1.7-10x40i and 1-6x24i set in German claw mounts for the rifle.

Th rifle is sort of inspired by Rigby stalking rifles. The stock looks good, metal work is well along and I'm trying to finalize engraving. I know I want a bushbuck on th floor, checkered bolt knob, and ...

I could use some ideas and maybe photos of engraving or artistic touches to add to the rifle.

Great pictures for sure. Those Eland are also 'special'. i've read they are wonderful eating.

When you click onto the share panel on PB the drop down shows Image and if you click on that it will flash yellow and copied. When you come back to the forum, right click, and paste, should have the pic shown when you submit the post.
