    If you look close to the trigger guard....that is definately late Garand....I assume that is the hammer sticking out of the "receiver" which should hit the "nipple" setting off the round.

    Still curious what that barrel is from, if it is a rifle barrel at all....and the caliber.

    The shame of it is if he'd stuck around, accepted the fact his rifle didn't seem up to spec.....for um, safety reasons......and listened up not only would he have had a wealth of knowledge to fall back on but the potential of getting assistance from members who could have guided him in the construction of a viable firearm.

    Ok, for those still wondering the caliber......who has the guts to contact the guy and find out?
    When the SHTF......be the fan.
