    So now. the hard question. who wants it. this rifle as promised, will be givin away for free.
    i did not have the proper screws to put the plastic butt plate back on, but will be givin to the new owner. i dont think it really needs it.
    if you want this rifle, all i ask is you tell me what you want it for.
    maybe to teach a young one how to hunt, or shoot. maybe to teach basic firearm safety to some one who may not be a firearm person.
    i was not able to test fire. but it did set of some make shift blanks, and the bolt slides like its on glass. so i think it will be fine.

    side not, the camera is still available, but i still want a picture of you and your family spending time together. that is the price of the camera.

    project generosity is slowly coming back into full swing. so if you got broken, rusty, firearms, i would be happy to take them off your hands, repair them and give them to a new home.
    accepting all donations.
    Thanks everyone. lets keep this going.

    Someone out there really needs this rifle. i would really like to hear your stories.
    i really want this to go to a good home.


    i forgot to mention this before, but the story does not have to be insparational.
    no i can not spell.
    i just want to hear what your plans for the rifle are. i just want to make sure the guns and other stuff given away is not just stuck in a closet to collect dust. that is a sad way for a rifle to sit.

    My Story

    My plans for the rifle would be to teach the family and my children how firearms are not bad, but can actually be fun when handled safely. I have a few high power rifles, and they really are not a good firearm to teach someone on. Teach to look down the sights at the target and slowly squeezing the trigger...after that, cleaning the firearm and general care and maintenance. Sure, we could get a bb gun, but its not the same!
    we would love to have this as part of our family!

    Looks good, ecspecially for what it started like! I'll put my name in. I think it would be a good rifle to teach my daughters with. I've been wanting to take my youngest to an Appleseed, and that would probably be a good rifle for that.

    I love what you're doing Richard, your a fine example for INGO!

    P.s. hope you found a job! It's been a few weeks, but Allen at Diamond Collision in Avon was looking for someone to do clean-up on cars that he has repaired. Maybe a fill in job, till you find what you want. ( if he still needs someone) good luck!

    thank you for the kind words. the rifle has a new future home already though.

    i have not found a job yet, but will go check out diamond collision. maybe he will need me for something.
