barrel!<\/p>\n<p>Next we moved to the finish of the gun. \u00a0As I&#8217;ve heard before, if you can&#8217;t be good, make sure you look good&#8230; \u00a0 So, no matter if one has a bad day of shooting, at least with a cool gun, he&#8217;ll look good doing it. \u00a0Tyler selected a green flame pattern for his wood and skull pattern for the chassis of the gun. \u00a0To round it all out, he decided to use some carbon fiber on the trigger guard and air tube. \u00a0I made the wood forend of the gun and inletted it for Tyler&#8217;s Rowan Engineering knee riser. \u00a0Finally, I had it all of the hydrograpics applied to the gun.<\/p>\n<p>Needless to say, this\u00a0Steyr LG100 turned out pretty awesome. \u00a0I delivered the gun to Tyler at the U.S. Field Target National Match in North Carolina. \u00a0Tyler was one happy fella and I have to say I am pleased with the final results.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/usfieldtarget.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/Tyler-2-e1446082226874.jpeg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-554\" src=\"http:\/\/usfieldtarget.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/Tyler-2-e1446082226874-300x225.jpeg\" alt=\"Tyler 2\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/usfieldtarget.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/Tyler-2-e1446082226874-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/usfieldtarget.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/Tyler-2-e1446082226874-1024x768.jpeg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/usfieldtarget.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/Tyler-3.jpeg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-555 size-medium alignnone\" src=\"http:\/\/usfieldtarget.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/Tyler-3-e1446081917968-300x225.jpeg\" alt=\"Tyler 3\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/usfieldtarget.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/Tyler-3-e1446081917968-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/usfieldtarget.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/Tyler-3-e1446081917968-1024x768.jpeg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/usfieldtarget.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/Tyler-3.jpeg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-556 size-medium alignnone\" src=\"http:\/\/usfieldtarget.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/Tyler-4-e1446082135436-300x225.jpeg\" alt=\"Tyler 4\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/usfieldtarget.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/Tyler-4-e1446082135436-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/usfieldtarget.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/Tyler-4-e1446082135436-1024x768.jpeg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My buddy Tyler Patner asked if I would convert an old 10 meter Steyr for him to 12 fpe to shoot in the World Field Target Division. \u00a0I eagerly agreed to help Tyler out since he had a hot lead on an old gun at a good price. \u00a0 His plans were pretty simple at [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":497,"menu_order":2,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/usfieldtarget.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/560"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/usfieldtarget.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/usfieldtarget.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/usfieldtarget.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/usfieldtarget.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=560"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/usfieldtarget.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/560\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":562,"href":"https:\/\/usfieldtarget.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/560\/revisions\/562"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/usfieldtarget.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/497"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/usfieldtarget.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=560"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
