Is anyone interested in a thread with lots of pictures

of the .45 Colt rifle build? I can take pictures of all the work required to fit the new barrel and extractor/ejector in the existing barrel. This one is going to be a little different from the others. The extractor/ejector is totally different from the NEF ones I did, so the steps to make a new one will be sort of interesting.

    Since I never built a .45 Colt rifle, Yes I'm interested.

    Maybe if I do this, then that guy from Mozambique WITH A LATHE HE DOESN'T USE will be inspired to do something similar. :tooth:

    I may just go ahead and do both the .45 Colt and .45 ACP at the same time since the barrel work on these two will be reduced a good bit. Extractor/ejector will be the time consuming part on these. With the barrel length, the .45 ACP will be pretty quiet all on it's own.

    They might be ugly, but I haven't built one of these that wouldn't shoot like a house on fire. :rotflmao:

    Already built it in my head several times over. As the Chief Engineer and CEO and CFO of this endeavor, I will listen to suggestions from consulting engineers, and promptly ignore them! :rotflmao:

    You mean everytime you shoot one of your guns somebody's house starts on fire? :tooth: Yes please show your build. It will be really interesting to watch!
