Further information, courtesy of Dave Norin:
I want to be careful with this one because Steve Nelson did a lot of work on it.
I know I did not do the extended tang and quarter rib and it looks like Steve's
work to me.
This rifle was in my shop for quite awhile , but the only thing I can claim for
sure is the metal polish and bluing.
