[QUOTE="BountyHunter, post: 150970, member: 12"] No one is stupid until something bad happens. Until then, the answer is always, "It worked before/nothing bad happened the last time we did it?" Yes, I have done too many of those things also and lived to tell about it (beer and tequila was normally involved though in my defense [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]) Lets look at the money aspect. Does it makes sense to buy or not sell a 700 action for $325-350 and then pay $400-600 to have it upgraded and then have it worth $450 when it leaves the gunsmiths counter? I will say that is stupid dollar wise to spend that much money to have a product that is worth 50% of what it cost you the day you leave the shop and then you have somthing that is questionably safe at best (Yea yea nothing bad has happened so far!) [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img] Did all the smiths saying go for it provide you a copy of their liability policy if it is so safe, how they done any serious testing and published articles to show it is safe? [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] Do you think that those considerations might/should be part of the equation? How much are your eyes worth to you? BH [/QUOTE]
