    Manual action IPSC rifle/3-gun too I guess but I assume if that becomes a thing people will build game gun pumps

    @ ishoot10s, I'm a lefty, so going to right-bolt Enfield is a big disadvantage for me.

    for now I compete in Open class, and hope that the SMC will be relaxed a bit going forward...

    was thinking more along the lines of getting something ready for CNIGC Irons shoot

    Watch Saving Private Ryan for some tips on running a bolt cack-handed! Sure, the dude was an actor, but he rocked that 03/A4.
    10MRT shooters do it 60 times, in two directions and at two speeds.

    lovely piece of design work there, they really know how to put together well thought out firearms in that part of the world.

    Yep. The Merkava too. You don't screw with the Jew.

    (-:

    Not bad for a first weld seam. When she did her two years national service in the IDF she probably also knew how to draw a different kind of bead.

    Having used the IMI Galil, I wonder whether a few welds would actually stop the Negev firing.... It would probably just shrug them off and carry on!

    I think I have a set of sights off a Ruger GSR. Your options are drill and tap, get a dovetail cut or braze.
    More meplat, more better.
