At this point, photos of the T-bolt are pretty useless. It's a 1967 Belgian made Browning, which unfortunately put it at risk for being a "salt wood" gun. On disassembly, I found that inside the stock was completely covered in salt and corrosion. Nothing that a bit of work won't fix, but too fugly for closeups. Give me a bit of time--I've already ordered a Boyds stock for it. I'll post nicer photos in the Long Guns section (and explain what "salt wood" is for anyone who doesn't know) once I get it running.

A gun is a tool, no better or no worse than any other tool: an axe, a shovel or anything. A gun is as good or as bad as the man using it. Remember that.

And shepherds we shall be, for Thee, my Lord, for Thee.
Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, that our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command.
So we shall flow a river forth to Thee, and teeming with souls shall it ever be.
In nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti.

Can't wiat to see it finished. FYI Boyds gun stocks are made no too far from me right here in SD. A super tiny plant for the number of products they pump out!

Nice products in my experience. I used to work near Richard's Microfit stocks and after a factory visit wouldn't gamble on one of those for any money.
