Here is a story and few pics of what i have been working on last couple of weeks.
It started years ago when i was about 17 i "killed" my dads old cooey. I cut the barrel in half..since the stock was broken and the hammer didn't work it was just a keeper for parts. Nevertheless he was angry for what i did. Two weeks ago i asked him if he still had this thing and all it was a piece of rust.
So i got to work and with a little help from CGN here it is.
thank you all for what i have learned here...
pictures don't do it justice...its a lot nicer than it looks here. anyway...all comments welcome

I dig it.

Everyone should own a Cooey.

Now, cut the barrel down to 18" and the buttstock into a pistol grip. The old man will love it.

i thought of getting another barrel and doing this..as for pistol grip i would have to find something else. cutting original stock will not look right. Any ideas?
by the way he was impressed...took some time i am 35 now but i learned to fix stuff instead destroying it.

as for cooey well...i own one .22 made by winchester. i hit squirell in the eye from 15 meters with iron sights. its so accurate i cant believe it and i am not that good at shooting.
thanks for your comment
