Incorrigable don't worry about skirsons he played the same song when i announced that I was building a new stock for my mosin nagant. Skirsons is one of those people who feel justified in being rude to people who chose to use thier own property in the way in which they like. I believe that his parents didn't teach him that if he can't think of something nice to say to be quiet. Your project looks great you should be proud .
LOL the OP shouldn't expect universal praise. When I see the desecration of any historical object it's sad. This isn't an online circle-jerk, it's a forum where opinions can be shared. If you can't deal with it, that's your own issue.
