I'm glad I wasn't just seeing things! Must be the lighting somehow makes it look blued. I'm looking forward to seeing what Rob does with it.

Got irons cookin' in many project fires, lucky me! I try not to rush anything. ;)
One thing for certain with Kibler kits - you want to have a mallet handy because most if not all metal parts are perhaps a few thousands proud of the stock wood. A mallet, or even a piece of 2x4 will "ease" the parts in with a few well placed taps.
You can see in the first two images that the breech tang is ever so slightly proud of the stock's upper wrist, and tapped down flush in the last image. So far, so good.
