Lol its a question I've been asked over and over the last 2 days . I guess my answer is I enjoy the journey of taking a factory rifle and polishing , tuning , reinforcing weak parts , and just generally giving a gun the time and attention that modern manufacturing has all but done away with . Don't get me wrong I appreciate all the thought and design that goes into ANY PCP but time and cost dictate a certain level of " good enough " . I work in Quality Control at a Huge factory and the kind of hand fitting that used to be common is honestly no longer feasible if you want to stay competitive. ....Refinishing a stock to a perfect sheen where the buttplate looks as if it grew from the wood .
Polishing all of the pins and moving pieces of a trigger assembly to the point they look chromed .
Tweeking the hammer tension , fine tuning the regulator , trying different pressure point in the stock , or something as silly as a Crazyass paint job till it suits you .
There's a point where its basically done and its time for a new project ..
What's next ? Maybe a Wildcat , love the exposed works , maybe some nitre bluing in a spot or two . Or an OUTRAGEOUS color scheme to set it off . I honestly don't know yet . But I'm ready to take a new horse out for a ride .
