Friend Jim Peightal:

I went to the mailbox today and found a package from you.

CYA friends, Jim sent me some highly polished aluminum stock for a butt plate for my spearment.

Thank you Jim......

It looks to be about 3/16ths stock......and I got to looking at it and saw some clear tape on one side, so peeled some of it back and saw the high polish....

Thank you.......I will make a pretty butt plate for the spearment.

And by the way, I apologize for the cobbed up sealing job I did on your beautiful stock...

I am going to get an appropriate finish on it, if I have to pay someone else to do it.

__________________

Jim, that stock is flint hard.....and I got lucky with the bedding......absolutely no movement between barrel and fore-end when I put my indicator on it...

When I shot it in my bucket it popped.......no vibration.....

One should never brag on one of these rimfires, but, this thing will scare you to death.

And your beautiful straight line, with that flint hard maple, is one of the factors.

______________________

When I get the butt plate installed I'll take a picture and post it.

Thank you again.

By the way, I use the walking stick you made for me every day......it's my house walking stick, since it has a rubber tip....

Your friend, BC
