Eagle Scout AR

Yeah that's a problem we discovered with this. Not enough space to put all of the cool scout stuff. I thought it would be neat to put the 12 points of the scout law in different places on the rifle sort of like a where's Waldo picture but decided against that. I went with KISS instead.

Wow, coolest dad award for sure. That is amazing. I bet you're super proud and your kid is stoked on his new gun too.

Cool to come back to this thread and see the final result. That is one awesome rifle. Congrats to your son and props to you. I'd love to see a photo of the dust cover.

Awsom idea. I to am an Eagle Scout. I have the Henry Eagle Scout rifle, BSA centennial rifle, and BSA Venture Scout rifle. I still have not gotten around to making a wall display for them. If you come up with a good design for this, let me know. I would love to have one as well.

That's a great idea but I would be afraid to leave them unsecured. I helped my youngest son build this for his wood working merit badge to store his paintball guns. http://wayneofthewoods.com/gunrack.html
It's was simple and was a nice weekend project.

Here is another version but a little more fancy

Sureshot did the engraving and it turned out great. I'll post some more detailed pics of that when I can.
