[QUOTE="shortgrass, post: 2267871, member: 24284"] I understand that a guy wants what he wants for his 'build'. But he should remember, sometimes that will come at an added cost. An example, I just finished 2 sets of custom machined scope mounts, rust blued and fitted to their respective firearms. The client provided the 'blanks', and dictated attachment method. If he'd have bothered to ask about 'blanks', wanted my input on attachment method, the result would have been lower in cost, IMO better attached, and visually and in a practical sense, "nicer". As it was, he risks damaging a fully machined, as part of the barrel on a long since not produced, German made .22 target rifle. Once you figure you've got it all figured out, someone with another 'view' may make it oh, so much simpler (and lower in overall cost in labor and parts). [/QUOTE]
