Thanks Tom, this Dufonte turned out so much better than I thought it would!
I just finished up 3 or 4 more barrel bottoms, (so more of the same the rest of this week) then I am done until I send some out for repair.

You got it Gary.
Yup, it really looks great if I am being honest. Everything from the style to your NATO is eye-catchingly eye-catching.
Keep on enjoying the Motherlode and we are looking forward to those others you are talking about as well.
