Receiver Drilling Jig - Brownell's

Okay ladies and gentlemen:

I was so moved by the premise of this pay it forward, that I wanted to do something a little different.

I want to add something perpetual - "living" if you will. As soon as someone chimes in that they want it, I will purchase and donate the Brownell's Receiver Drilling Jig.
Accurately Locates The Barrel Cleaning Hole On 10/22 Receivers - Permits barrel cleaning from the rear without removing the barrel; eliminates accuracy-destroying cleaning rod wear caused by cleaning from the muzzle. Locates the correct spot at the rear of 10/22 receivers for drilling a small hole to allow the cleaning rod to pass through. (Picture and ad copy from Brownell's)

I will pay for the part and for the initial round of shipping, with the following provisos:
1) That each person agrees to keep it only long enough to accomplish the task at hand - I would think a week to ten days should be sufficient.
2) That each user, immediately upon completing the drilling of their own receiver(s), put it back on Pay It Forward and pay for the shipping to the next recipient.
3) That the first user start a thread and all subsequent users post, maybe even with photos and comments to allow all to see just how far this thing might go.

I personally think this will be a really neat journey around the membership with an item that can be very helpful to those of us who do not have access to some of the high-tech tools that many here do.

There it is - Speak up......

John

Alright!

I've got my gun stripped down right now; the weather is horrible for shooting, so the timing is perfect!

I use a Boresnake almost exclusively now, so I'm mostly looking to add a second anchor at the rear of the receiver. The other three guns I have lined up will be using the hole for its intended purpose--the owners aren't drinking the Boresnake Cool-Ade.

Thanks to everyone!

If only we could share all our infrequently-used tools this way....

Geez I just saw this thread and read through it from start to finish! What a wonderful idea and I am so impressed with the way it has progressed.

I'd like to be added to the list but not just yet as one of the rifles I want to use it on is out of state on loan to my BIL. He "should" be returning it soon. Along with my chainsaw etc.

I'll keep an eye on this thread and post when I'm ready.

I got the jig #2 this afternoon, drilled 4 rifles and have it boxed up and ready to send to Ohio first thing in the morning.
This is a wonderful thing that John got started , I've enjoyed watching it move around the country. It's really an amazing piece of equipment.
Thanks again John, I appreciate getting to be part of this project.

I have PM'd pmoper and enracaed, and asked them to send you both their addresses. It looks as though you will both be finished about the same time. Please PM me a confirmation that you received addresses for the timely continuation of this project.

Thank you again for your assistance and participation.
