Thanks Jim for the acceptance to the forum. I'm buddies with Bruce Canfield and we both help with The American Rifleman Television, cable tv show. In addition Joseph Scott and Brian Alpert have helped me greatly with with a couple projects in recent years. I have a beautiful original rifle with bayonet as well as a great running semi-auto JLMG. I recently rebuilt a Johnson frankengun (rifle with magazine feed) back into a really decent and proper rifle that a friend now owns and loves. Former marine (sergeant) and old service rifle competition shooter.
