Any and all dimensions would be appreciated! At the present time, I am just copying pics and using the general measurements off a 10cm barrel. And some book extracts.

I did not see any chatter marks on the taper, that is always nice huh?
I'll let you know when I start tapering! This is just roughing the general shape out, for now.

I'll turn down the front next, then shape the front sight base. After that, the rear sight "sleeve" and base. That'll kill a day...
