Brass 10/22?

[DrifterFisher]

Has anyone ever viewed a BRASS 10/22 that shoots shorts only? I have been watching this guns progression from the beginning. Very cool.

This is the thread about it.

I've never seen one like that. It would be a great addition to my .22 collection.

I started following it, then got bored and quit. I think it's pretty ugly in that picture.

I love Mannlicher-style stocks but it looks unfinished , clunky looking .

 

[DrifterFisher]

It is not finished. It has been a work in progress for the last few months. I watched the receiver start from a chunk of brass,the stock was a chunk of wood...Alot of time a skill has went into this gun. The stock has not been finished,it still has to be final sanded and a finsh of some sort used. I had really thought you guys would appreciate true craftsmanship but I guess I am wrong.

 

[ksenter]

thats because its unfinished, and still clunky, hahaha.

Just scanned through all 40 pages. I am in awe at the craftsmanship

 

[Shley65]

just isn't worth it, hope it gets finished one day . out

 

[DrifterFisher]

Wow some of you guys have zero appreciation for true craftsmanship. I thought that with this being a gun forum you would take notice of someones hard work and ingenuity. Guess if its not store bought it aint good nuff. There is more time and love in this gun than any you might own,unless you have built most of the parts for it, I don't mean whipping out the CC to buy it and bolt it on. Guess my thinkin was way the f^@k off Sorry I won't post any more "homemade" stuff.

I thought it was pretty cool.. Unique piece for the gun cabinet..

 

[DrifterFisher]

H, I highly doubt he would consider selling it.hehe Maybe but you could prolly buy the tools needed and build it yourself first.

 

[HEIST]

Ive got a long way to go before I can do anything close to that.. Maybe one day..

Is it a single shot or can it cycle in a modified 10/22 mag with shorts? I like anything cool and home made so mark me down as a liker.

Holy shit is that really Stanley? I still want to shoot the pink BMG! I kinda have been following your leadership on PFF stirin the pot.

Turtle,it cycles the shorts. It has a VQ bolt and mag that allows this. The barrel is also chambered in shorts only,a LR will not fit. I will copy and paste new pics as they come. It is just amazing what someone with a few skills can really do.

Quite a project, I am amazed at people who can do this type of work.

I glanced at some ammo yesterday in town...didn't check the price. Will do and get back to ya.

UPDATE
The fore end cap has been fitted. Truly awesome craftsmanship. How many people do you know that can take a chunk of material and make it in to something? I can weld things together,but machining is beyond my capability's.
