"Final run"...I am pretty sure I have said that at least twice

[Gazza]

I'm sure you will be saying it again too

While you're in the block purchase of parts for the 'last batch', can I buy a spare locking nut that holds the rifle to the stand? During the house move, its rattled off somewhere :(. Fortunately the part that slid into the stock was still there, just not the knob.

Rob, I make the knobs to my own design and will make a couple of spares when I start the run :)

The Mk IV bipods are going together ready to be shipped over the next couple of days. It is nice to be able to haul everything out and start the assembly process even if it does mean having bipods and bipod parts in every conceivable corner of the workshop.

The only thing at the back of my mind is can I actually manage to keep one for myself this time...

Great news.....being fitted in around building a sling swivel socket and bullet pointing die..yes?

[ovenpaa]

7 bullet pointing dies old chap :)

Yes the sling thing is progressing.

Great...a stotte wotsit is a damned fine bipod but would get my dinner money stolen if I had one on the AR
