    You'll be fine, Gary.

    Rejoice in the exquisite build and machining and the joy of owning such a rare and to-be-collectable classic.

    Sure you'll enjoy it.

    Though I shouldn't have to have straightened mine, it was a simple task.
    I now have a rather nice shooting sport.
    There was no way mine was going back, considering the serial number it bears.

    Drop me a message when you get it and I'll give you a steer.

    Enjoy.

    And a nice, muted thud it will, no doubt, deliver once you've worked your magic.

    What are your plans for it, anything innovative or just a strip and lube?

    Delrin guides?

    Put a scope on or you definitely won't hit anything.

    If your barrel comes in factory spec (bent) don't straighten it and it will be more valuable and collectable compared to the other customised examples

    Mine should be worth a fortune then.

    I can feel the collectors crying already
