that looks sooo awesome! i would love to do this to my m60, do you know if that same texturing material you used would stick to wood?

Have you thought of filling the stock with shot or anything to add some weight. I was looking at doing something like this to my 795 but adding some weights in the stock for added stability. I really like what you did to yours and its good inspiration for those of us who are bored and need a new project.

The best thing I can suggest is to get away from Remington Ammo...

It's inconsistancy will screw you at an Appleseed.

Great for plinking, but due to the short powder/no powder loads and Squibs, not to mention the no Primer loads...
not suggested for serious shooting use.

RFC (Rimfire Central) has HUNDREDS of threads on the issues with Remmy ammo.
And they're far from the only ones.


Tech Sights Do rock!! Noticed your front sight looked silver instead of black though...is that normal?
