Excellent ! I grew up with an old Remington pump. Killed a lot of rabbits with that rifle. Beautiful job.

Hobbyman2, really nice job. Hard to tell that it is custom built.

I have a similar Remington Pump Rim Fire 22. Maybe the same model. I didn't hunt rabbit with it but I plinked a lot of tin cans at the dump. This was a Christmas present to me when I was thirteen.

I would not be plinking tin cans with it today. I just checked ammo prices. Five cents a round was the cheapest I found.

Thanks every one , to me it was just a enjoyable way to pass a afternoon, after being laid up for so long it was as much mental therapy as physical.

with any luck his grand son will be able to use the same rifle as their fathers great uncle.
