Works fine IJ
Here's what that Don (Don R) did with a Rapid: http://s662.photobucket.com/user/pmb...binson%20rapid
I have to say, his work feels good in the hands - improved grip shape etc. And he definately has a style all of his own...
I have a stock which I sent to him about 1984 for some work and I don't like it much.It has the trade mark ''stippling'' by kango all over it and it looks like it's been made by a African tribesman also to top it all he stamped his name on the cheek piece.He was a nice man to deal with though
In saying yes to this air rifle you are confirming that you are not a messer and are allowed to go out in public without your carer
Apparently you need to stand behind Don Robinson with a baseball bat while he's working, and tap him sharply on the head each time he shows signs of getting 'flamboyant'.
It's just how he is. No doubt he's a great craftsman, but unless you like the sort of thing frontend describes, he's going to disppoint...
