I took a look at it and it looks like it would be a fun. challenging project to try and make. No lose if I don't succeed. My question is what type of steel would be appropriate? I was thinking pre-hard 4142 steel. Any advise would be appreciated. I'll try to get some pictures of the part and post them tomorrow but I believe it's the breech.
Attached is a crappy picture of the rifle that I found with the help of Mr. Google.

After watching her, you'll say, "Heck, I can do this..."
Hi, I enjoy machine scraping and long walks in metal machinery factories.
