Thanks for replies. Matt, I think I will just put it together like it is, and not worry about the shelf paper. If the 40 isn't strong enough, i'll put my Magnum .46XLS on it, and same the .40's for something smaller. I have a Tiger Stick waiting in the wings, along with a Mid-* and a Something Extra in their boxes waiting to be built. I'll just fly the Easy Sport to build up time before I move on to something a little more exotic. I've been planning on this for a long time. I started building up my supplies since 1978 for when I would have time. Two sons, two college educations later, I am ready to start having my own fun. If all goes well, and the creeks don't rise, I'll get to start this weekend.
