I have been on the boards for a couple of years and have learned a lot.I have restored and customized lots of shotguns,but are now wanting to try a rifle.I want to do a ruger #1 that i have.I would like to restock it with a nice grade English walnut.Add a check piece. as well as other items to the wood.The wood should not be a problem.I think i have an understanding of it.I would like to have the barrel contoured.I would like to change the sights on the gun.The ruger factory sights look cheap to me.Can new front and rear sights be bought or will they have to be made custom.If so where or by who would be good.Also what else would i have to have done?I am planing to polish the receiver and have it case colored and maybe some engraving.Thats not a problem.I have done that.My questions are the barrel and the sights.Any help would be great and thank you so much for your help.
