Tactical/Target Rifle w/WOOD

This one is an M40 inspired design. Not 100% period or clone correct, but gets close...

Transfer markings to find the high spots. File and sand those down until the crescent plate makes complete contact.

Another NRL Hunter rifle ready for the 2026 season.

TL3, Bartlein CF - 7SAW

Mostly natural, but with some medium brown to give it an aged, vintage look.
