A great video showing how rifle building was done many years ago,... consisting of, forging, boring, rifling, casting, carving, and etc.  :hey-hey  :hairy

Enjoyable, but it makes me tired, especially my arms.  :hairy
Young guys should hang out with old guys; old guys know stuff.

I don't  think Wallace Gussler looks the same these days.
Of course, when I think about my first viewing of the film in maybe 1976 or so, I guess I look a bit different as well.
Great film.  Enjoy watching it over and over.  Always seem to pick up something new.
Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply. Speak kindly. Leave the rest Up to God.
