i may be getting a very part time job helping a guy in his custom gun shop!!! the guy does amazing work. i talked with him for i don't know how long yesterday. he does muzzleloaders, shotguns, and rifles including barrels, stocks and everything in between. it should be awesome. he said that if i wanted to really learn about it he would teach me the process and even do custom work on my own guns with his help. i've already decided i want to get a really nice thumbhole stock and have him help me free float it and bed my 30-06. i can't wait!!!!

well good on ya, hope it works out, sounds like fun
