Well finally got the last of the parts I needed to complete my Christmas project...

Most of you know I had this old Renegade barrel that I had purchased off e-bay... It was a bad purchse on my part - the barrel is pitted pretty bad and the area around the nipple shows a lot of use. I did try to get rid of the barrel, couldn't sale it with good faith so I tried giving it away - no takers even when I promised themthat itshotwell - in fact very well. So the next best thing was to build itback into a useable ML'er. With the help of a fellow ML'er and parts lying around the house and one more e-bay purchase it is back together.

Well, it is not new but it is beautiful - now I have this really soft spot for it. I know it is not fancy and not an inline but I am plain type guy so it works for me. I even like it better than my new Renegade. No! Cascadedad you can not have the new one! Next step is sighting it back in - that is the better part.

Happy New Year to you all...
