Saw this post on FB and honestly I’d buy a reproduction Martini Henry in 45-70. I mean I’m still going to buy an original one and restore to where it can shoot and reload for it but it would be nice have one I wouldn’t be as worried about damaging and being in a caliber that is readily available

Saw a fudd disaster up close

My eyes hurt so bad.

It’s was painful guys.

In a nutshell a guy claiming to be a gunsmith showed me a Russian Izzy parts kit build on a nodak spud receiver and he got rid of all of the original furniture for tapco fudd type tactical furniture including the trigger. That wasn’t the bad part though...

no

stop

please

It’s gets much worse

@tumble the tapco g2 is a good trigger

change my mind

This guy literally attached a rail to the original dust cover so he could mount an optic on it and then DRILLED SCREWS INTO THE BACK OF THE FUCKING DUST COVER straight through the receiver because it “wasn’t holdin zero”

...........

oof

tapco makes good triggers tbh. everything else sucks

I’m not fucking kidding this happened

@tumble

ok heres a story

local smith cannot

for the love of god use the internet

Original barrel too. This parts kit was nice.... would’ve been a good build

Okay.

i asked for a new gi style 1911 front sight and he said i havent seen one of those for about 40 years

since my current one broke the poor steaking

ive had multiple issues with him not being able to do things,

with multiple style rifles

hes a overpaid guncleaner at this rate

Lol

@tumble AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

cant find a front sight cant fix a mosin extractor

Oof

cant populate a AR barrel

Jeez.

🤨

CANT GET NEW GLOCK SIGHTS ON STRAIGHT

So, he's like every "gunsmith"

LITERALLY

Honestly.

blew 200 rounds trying to improve my aim thinking i was pulling

It's well worth learning light gunsmithing.

nope sight is pointing left
