Its actually to bad that this guy turned out to be such a flake. A gun forum can always use a knowledgeable gunsmith on the forum. Why people have to lie or stretch the truth to the point of being called a liar is beyond me. If 1A actually built those rifles, then he has talent for sure. They do look like very well built accurate rifles. I saw pictures of a bedding job he claimed to do and I must say,it looked very good. I have a friend that seems to have the same problem as 1A. Telling the truth is just not capable of him but we all know when he's talking its probably BS. Its to bad cause he's really a pretty good guy. 1A may have problems none of us know about and attention is all he wants but he sure went about it the wrong way on this forum. He may just be a habitual liar and will never change. Its to bad if this is the case. If by chance, which I personally doubt, someone is stealing his identity to make him look bad, then he should try to contact someone on the forum and try to fix it. But...I don't really think this is whats happening.
