On this side of the border that color is known as orange. I generally return new pads to clients clean and let the client use it giving it an aged look. For an extra fee I can drag it through the dirt though. I had hoped to install a perished vented pad with a white line spacer but alas, my suppliers were all back ordered. Different strokes for different folks I guess.

That is why there are different colored trucks and more than one happy woman in the world.

Steve, Noli illegitmi carborundum. A small dog following a brass band is still just one small SOB.

This was a simple clean up, hardly the more advanced type of work I do. Ego bruised? No. I posted this rifle because it is exceptionally rare, not to showcase a stock cleaning and recoil pad installation. This is some of the most basic work I do. The point of this post may have been lost upon you.

I for one thank you for posting this fine rifle and the many others you have posted in the past. I am amazed and mystified by those that chose to pounce on minor things. Please don't be driven off this forum. I hate to see you, Steve and Bill - extremely talented gunsmiths constantly fending off attacks. I am not interested in joining in the bickering, but know that many of us appreciate your contributions to this forum.

Thank you Wallace. I am not going anywhere and will continue to post in both this forum and the new one just for pros. If anyone has any input to add on the Rigby posted in the professional forum you can send it to me via pm and I can add it to the thread. I enjoy pleasant discourse about fine old sporting rifles.

Steve

Good point! Totally lost on someone like rocky mtn bill.

Talk about dim... there's a dim bulb gun owner that blindly votes for the very liberal left Democrats that work relentlessly to infringe upon the 2nd Amendment Rights of law abiding citizens.

But seriously, Billy's mean-spirited name calling is driving sensitive folks to Uplnd Journal.


A true sign of mental illness is any gun owner who would vote for an Anti-Gunner like Joe Biden.
