Lots of questions....
No, my mailroom does not open my mail (couple of knife guys there, I sometimes show them what comes in). We're a business that deals in lots of super-confidential info so they don't open packages. I have stuff delivered at work so my wife won't take my winky away. Had an FAR upper delivered there, once...never ammo, though. I'd hate to have to take home a case of 30-06 on BART...
The gun is a new production FN Hi-Power.
I got the SRT package from Yost with a few additional mods.
The package includes:
The barrel is original, but yes, it does look a little more octagonal than when I first sent it. It could be my imagination.
I also had Mr. Yost do his trigger reset reduction (bwiese, you should consider this), mill french borders and a couple of other things I can't immediately think of.
Yes, it was expensive, but I have a lot of guns, a thing for Hi-Powers and would like to have something special that my kids can sue each other over when I'm gone.
Wait time, from when I sent it in to when it was returned to me was about 12 months (not sure, I pretty much sent the gun and forgot about it).
And yes, that 45/70 is pretty dang expensive, but if I can't have an open magwell OLL (not big on SRBs) it might be my SHTF gun (or the Big Lewie Jr in 30/30)...
