Thread: Old school rifle , almost done

Hi, nice, but instead of the A2 I would have put a Mchale:McMillan Tactical Stocks, McMillan Fiberglass Stocks, Synthetic Stocks, Tactical Stocks

That would have looked more like current wooden stock.

I am familar with the McMillan fibreglass " McHale " stock , as it is basically a McM glass version of Parker Hales wooden stock used on their M85 & M87 rifles .
My M85 has a McHale stock , and you are right they are a very nice size/shape , and very over looked , I like it over all the other Tactical type stocks that McMillan make .

BUT , as its meant to be a reproduction of the Canadian C3A1 rifle , then I am limited to either a old wooden stock off a TX1200 Parker Hale target rifle , or a McMillan A2 fibreglass stock , and in a rifle like this , I prefer glass over wood .

But of all the McM stocks , I seem to like the A2 & the McHale stocks over all others .

Cheers Chris

hi Chris

Whats the shiny bit at the front, looks to small to be a suppressor?

Nice rifle!

Cheers

Dino

very nice chris

Thanks guys ,

Yeap see is a very special rifle , for me any way , only 2 things remaining , A2 McM glass stock & blue the polished extractor .

GOOD news , I just got notification that my other USO scope & M40A1 mount are here , NOW just need to wait till they are open , maybe in a weeks time .
They tryed to deliver , but I was at work .

Its going to be a LONG wait .

Cheers Chris
