I do not think that they hunt much of anything here. We are meeting up with Snuffbox and his lovely wife for dinner and I will ask. Tickety boo!

LoL It's like getting inside a barrel and letting everyone bang on it. Can you see yourself falling down and you could not get up and some huge person coming at you with any of those weapons. OUCH!
Did you see the what they wore and that crotch bag between their legs? Looked like the crowned jewels on display. :shock: :lol:

Well I have been neglecting the forearm so I am going to dive in;

Lots of extra wood on it and the shape needs to be contoured some.

Sorry about the slow start after the trip but this old boy needs to adjust and the wife is home through the weekend so she keeps me hopping. :D

The pencil mark on the side shows wear the matrix stock bottom is. My thoughts are to eliminate the finger guards and keep the forearm the way it looks. Any thoughts??

Here is two pic's of the forearm. Just looking at it, it does not look out of place. The one where I am holding it the palm really feels good holding it and I can not see hold anyone could stick a thumb up that high.
