Thanks! I agree I'm very pleased with everything I had done I must say! You hear so many horror stories these days it's great to know who to go to when your looking for a quality job. I'd show off the great bedding job John(M14Medic) did too but I don't want to pop the stock off again yet to take a picture. It's flawless though!
Was that SN the norinco SN ? Also did you mill off the old norinco lettering ?
It was yup, I shortened it up a bit to center it on the heel. Also milled off any lettering from the factory as well as machine marks from the tooling.
This is mine built by John(m14medic). Great thank to John for building this awesome rifle. Used LRB barreled action + IDF parts. Welded gas system and bedding. It's sad I don't have a time to take it to outdoor range, only tested at 40yard indoor range. Still good enough for me. Tried 3 different handload. My shooting skill is bad. I still squeeze my shoulder sometimes when I pull the trigger. I think this rifle can do better if I do my partAttachments

That is one great looking build and hey even tho its only 40 yards those are still pretty sweet groups! Congrats on the rifle!
My M25 Build
Here's my LRB M25 build. Truthfully, the only IDF parts are the bolt, and the trigger group minus the hammer and trigger that are shooting sight.
Barrel is criterion non chrome. Wood is from Boyd's, the rest of the hardware is from Treeline. Rear site is SA National Match that required milling a hole for the spring and ball in the receiver. The four targets are the last 20 rounds out of her, first 10 were not as good. Unfortunately, they were shot at 50yds, so I will need to get it outside to see what it is really capable of.

Thanks, it’s a Voodoo Tactical. Got it from Wanstalls.
The m14 medic built it for me
-H&R barrel cut down to 18.6 re-crowned and added that nifty flash hider/muzzle break
-has system unitized
-fluted oprod spring guide
-it’s built on a dominion/norinco receiver from a socom 18
-glass bedded in a Boyd’s deluxe walnut stock
-casm m14.ca scope base with atrs rings
-scope is a uso 1-8 power scope 8c model
-Bradley cheek rest
-Specter m14 sling
Lots of man hours I got the full meal deal I’d have to check the bill I believe the bolt is lapped as well

Here's my 3rd. and most likely last IDF build.
The receiver is a 2012 Norc, so it's not as nice as my LRBs, but compared to some of the pics I've seen of Norcs, it's quite nice for a Chicom. It passed M14 Medic's inspection procedure, the bolt rides nicely and the USGI rear sight fits well.
Bolt and trigger group are TRW, barrel and op-rod are HR. I put 35 rounds through it without any issues. The target was shot at 50yds, and is as good as I could shoot with any iron sights.
