We are running a contest for a Bolt Action Build Off in spirit of our bend towards the sniper/recon role...
Think outside the box for this one. Just an upgraded painted L96 or Bar-10 will not win the contest. We are looking for unique rifles that will show real skills and what can be done with just a base rifle and imagination. You have a little over 7 months if you start today so get crackin'.
Rules are:
-Contest open to anyone.
-Spring or Gas Bolt Actions allowed
-All pictures must have a card with the date on it of the picture to verify.
-Internals can be upgraded to start but no external modifications can be made before starting... but please list the internals so we know what they are.
-All work must be done by you and only you (production parts are okay but must be installed by you)
-Contest will run from now until July 31st, 2011
-Anything goes but original and unique work will garner more points
-Prize still to be determined (thinking along the lines of a gift card or credit to your favorite store for $100)
-Start your own thread here and document your work from beginning to end just a picture of the final gun will not fly
-Yes the gun must be functioning ...
Judging:
-A panel of qualified and respected snipers/players from around the area that are not in the contest will review the threads and judge the work
-Originality and uniqueness will be the main qualifier
-I'm entering so I will not be a judge
So good luck and happy hunting....
