pentz: yes, you do see a Dillo. AR fan myself too.
I like not only historic firearms and rifle but the new technology too.
madsenshooter: I was also lucky that someone painted the rifle black at some point and that helped to keep it in good shape all these years. But now you see it clean and with the original parts completed, but This is how it was when I got it.

Ah, I see, good on them for preserving it, and good job cleaning it up.

This story from 2014 is still interesting to me. I wonder if Nono ever got to shoot his 'Grampa's Krag'?

Last entry was july 2014 so he is long gone. You can look at all of folks who signed on to the KCA and find hundreds who have zero to less than a dozen posts.
