What action are you using Mericet? That looks (in your pic.) to be a Westley Richards top lever...but the safety button would be wrong for that.
Best Wishes, Mike.

Bic, the action is an AYA 12ga with a Greener cross bolt.

I got the extractor cut done today. Next step is to make a new extractor. I am busy getting ready for my last board of trustees meeting as SGA president, putting out my graduation clothes and rehearsing my keynote speech for tonight. I will post pictures later this week.

The cartridge is 3.25 inches long. The advantage of a double is a quick follow up shot and as they have been around a long time (well set up?) there is very little chances something will go wrong for the second shot.

I also learned that I got all A's this semester. Did not think I was going to make it.

You seem to be to "into" the course not to get all  A's.

Well done with the 'A'   -  so it was originally a 3"12ga?.....it does have double triggers right?

I actually got two B's last semester. But it was also the semester I separated from my wife and moved right in the middle of the semester. Just did not get as much work done as I needed to. But, you know, life sucks sometimes.

I believe it was a 3" but not sure. I am continueing work where another student (since graduated) left of. That did not matter anyway as the barrels were chopped of and used to create the monoblock. And yes, double triggers.
