Barrel switch

[Nuclearcricket]

Your welcome. Yes I agree the wood to metal fit can leave just a little to be desired. On mine I have some glass on the upper and lower tangs and there is a large gap between the forend and receiver. Some might be upset about that but for me it means that there will be no contact and I can live with it. Mine shoots probably better than I can hold it. My only gripe is that it shoots off to the left and I have the front sight moved over accordingly. Maybe one of these years I can make it up to Pauls shop and have him tell me why its like that.
Other than that it is a good solid rifle, its accurate and easy to maintain.
I have had mind since the late 90's, don't remember the exact date. The serial number is in the mid 500 range. The only problem, mechanically, I have ever had with it was a broken firing pin. That happened shortly before a bit match. A phone call had a new pin in a couple of days. I was told when I called that it was a common problem and that what I really needed to do was to send the block back and it would be fitted with larger firing pins. I did that after the match and have not had a problem since.
My Shiloh on the other hand, hasn't had a problem at all. I am very happy with the extreme quality of American made and American backed single shot rifles available today and the fine people that make them.
Since my post from last night, I have had one other response on ASSRA and it was also posative, no problems with switching barrels on a 2000 model.
