I got this into my head some months ago, and I've been kicking it around ever since. I want THAT GUN. Big, heavy, solid and satisfying in my hand.
I know other guys have done this before (you're my hero, Adam Savage!) and there are a plethora of cast kits from various metals, plastics...but I want to weigh my options. And I'm not ruling out the idea of building from scratch. (At least, not yet.)
SO. Are there any experienced builders out there who know where to get/have acquired a Steyr-Mannlicher .222 (or .223) target rifle receiver and magazine? Or anyone who has tackled this build? I would love an opportunity to pick your brains!
