Not drooling because I already built one pretty much just like it. Honestly I still think it's better to build your own.

Here's how mine breaks down:

Rifle in SS $560

Larger lever loop $100

Better Ejector $20

Action Smoothing/trigger job/weakening the lever safety/cutting the stock/pachenmeyer recoil pad/polish the crown/
Install the above two items $220

Scout Rail $30

Sights $40, just upgraded to a ghost ring $10

Total $980

Does anyone have any idea how much that new model costs?
