Mine is a 3rd Model, 10" brl .22lr (the one with the centered trigger and useless double action mode) that was in fair condition with a good bore when I got it. Tightened-up the latch/lock, spent about a solid week hand polishing it and had Mike Dubber gold inlay the barrel marks. Spent another week making and 32 lpi checkering the English walnut grips with a minimum saw kerf for a good book match. Steve Moeller charcoal blued the gun, had the trigger and hammer re-case colored and I (non-factory) nitre blued the screws. After it was all done I found out why Roper and others added fore-stock and barrel weights as it is entirely too light, especially in the front end, to shoot very accurately. I love the gun (and took some time fooling around with PhotoShop backgrounds, lableing) and will post similar for others.
Best,
Steve
