Custom job! What do you think??

I'm not often speechless, but on this occasion, words fail me.
Wow.
Wold Clas
Looks like you used a 6014 welding rod. Should have used a 6013.
6014?? I was using an old coat hangar dipped in flux.
Zero must be about 1000 yd... I don't think the rings are high enough
Hey that's pretty nice!!!!! The "stove bolts" are that perfect touch.
Well you won’t have to worry about the receiver screws coming loose!
Custom scope mount should add a bit of value, don't think?
I would give the owner $50 just so I could grind that mess off of it.
Someone call the SPCF (Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Firearms).
20, or 30 moa base???
wow I must have missed the SHTF day and now having to resort to such engineering and fab work .
but honestly I have seen a lot of back street back yard no tools bare foot dirt floor cobblers you tube videos in 3rd world country's that could have done 1000x better
I can only hope it was a 10 year old with dads welder and dad was away for the day
maybe started like this " no son I am not giving you 25.00 for a scope mount for the mini 14 "
fine I do it my self
It makes the stock look good.
That's forgemonkey's Ruger ain't it???
He's practicin' up so he can put a scope on that K98🤣
I would have used wing nuts, to make it a quick detach mount............
That's truly a work of art.
You think that is nice work, you ought to see those 1911's Forgemonkey builds. Smoothest welds you have ever seen. Truly art.
At least he used a jam nut on the stove bolts. Can't be to secure you know. Bob
