Here are some more pictures of the backpacker from some different angles....
First impressions are good.
28 1/4" long
The trigger had a small amount of creep but after a "poor boy's trigger job" it feels pretty good!
The muzzle is sharp and needs some de-horning and the hammer and break-lever could use a minor de-horn as well.
Feels quite solid and the weight is more then I thought it would be...
The trigger and guard are solid steel and beefy.
Stock feels pretty good for length and it shoulders well.
There is a small line cut into the receiver that I guess is to help with aiming but it is hard to notice and the brass bead is easy to see.
The rubber butt pad is quite hard.
The action can be opened with the hammer cocked and the hammer will drop when the trigger is pulled and the action is open.
Extractor.
Needs,
Some sling mounts.
A custom stock with storage inside and a better pad.
A few 10 inch 12G. insert barrels chambered for .22lr,9mm,45acp etc...
