Dropped by Doc's gun shop today and drooled over the refinished Bishop stocks - sorry I did not take my camera.
Doc says he will soon get it all back together and give me a call, maybe by next week. At that time I will post some b4 and after pics.
Then it will be off to the range for some real fun.

Cool cant wait to see the pics and the range report. What all are you having done to it?

Jeremy;
Refinish stocks, repair bolt, thorough cleaning (last taken apart in 1970), and oiling.
The bolt problem made it unuseable and required dissambly, therefore, the other work was done.
I will run through all this when I post before and after pictures.
