Any interest in a Rem 597 project

[JD]

Hey guys, I am going to start a Rem 597 Project. Is anyone interested in seeing an ongoing tutorial on it? A few of the things I believe I will be doing include; working over the trigger, possibly polishing up the action (bolt, guide rails, etc.), minor stock work, camo painting/finishing the rifle.

If anyone is interested I will post updates, basic instructions, and photos of the process. Some things will be specific to the 597, and some will be applicable to any rifle.

Just seeing if there is any interest, don't really want to do all the extra work if no one will benefit from it. lol

Thanks

I am also doing:

-replacing the extractor if needed
-Free floating the barrel


I am looking to improve on three things. Function, accuracy, and looks. My goal is to get a rifle that runs smooth and flawlessly, and is plenty accurate for squirrels and rabbits.

I would be interested. Been wanting to learn a little about gun repair.

Well, I'll go ahead and document the project. Their is no specific timeline, as this will be fit in around my three jobs, knife work, and family.

I'll probably start up the initial thread today. Work on the project will not actually begin for a week or two. I have several knives ordered that I have to get done ASAP. The knives got put on hold while I have been helping my parents out while my father has been down and out. His cast comes off this week, and I am DONE manning the grill! lol So as soon as I get caught up I will be starting this.

Thanks
