[QUOTE="downsouth, post: 207181, member: 11697"] [FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3]This is my first post so I’m going to apologize ahead of time if this is a dumb question as I’m a newb to the custom rifle word. I’ve got some money burning a hole in my pocket so I’m looking into getting a custom rifle either built off of an existing action or just buying a completely new rifle.
