Hey JWK

As you may have told you before I am building one of these at the moment. Had a new stock design made-up by Gordon Cussens in Tassie... (pretty sure he is a member here) it is a new pattern that we worked on (well, you know - I gave him some thoughts and he made it!!) and he can cut-out extra stocks in that design and he also has a couple other stock patterns I believe. Afro has my stock at the moment and is doing the final metal work and blueing etc and now I 'just' have to get the engraving, checkering and stock finish done. Still got a ways to go yet .. This stock pattern was a little fuller in the grip than a traditional Lee Speed but still keeps the general lines.

I can send you some images if you like?? Will post them here eventually too.... My aim with this project was to make a very high quality Lee Speed 'type' ... I have only been let-down once so far when a certain gunsmith (NOT Afro) bludgeoned the numerals '303' into the side of the new barrel... need to correct/cover-up that somehow!! That was my fault of course... should have told him to do it underside or something but did not occur to me. You live and learn I guess...

Cheers
Matt
