Glad it brought back some good memories for you Bob, similar memories for me. My father and I were avid shooters when I was young. he had a collection of Winchesters, 25/20, 32/30, 44/40, all hex barrel, half magazine 92 or 94 actions, can't remember. They had the full slide breech with two rectangular pins locking the breech block on the final close of the lever. Also a Henry replica with a brass receiver and no front stock. What happened ?? political correctness and stupidity is what happened however this is not the forum for that discussion. I would suggest using 200 gsm to build this, I used 125 gsm and it's a bit light in places, the heavier card would be a lot better. Happy building, look forward to some photos when you're done.
