In Lafayette.
It's a rifle built upon a Yugo M24/47 Mauser receiver assembly. The bolt was turned down by someone good at their craft. It's done smoothly, and solidly, with no ugly edges or corners, and if you didn't know the orientation of the bolt originally, you wouldn't know it was modified. It clears the scopes I've put on it, just fine. It has an E.R. Shaw chrome-moly matte finished helical fluted barrel. 22 inches in length. The barrel is free floated, as I can pass a sheet of paper between the barrel and stock, all the way to the receiver. I am unsure who made this stock, but it is gorgeous. Color and grain is beautiful, and it's form is a dream to weld my cheek to. The pad makes it a comfortable rifle to shoot, as well.
With this goes the leather sling, which I believe is a USGI leather sling off a Springfield rifle. It matches the slings we have on the rifles in the front of the shop at work, and that's all that I know about it.
The trigger is a BOLD aftermarket trigger. It has very little travel, but a good bit of pressure required to trip the trigger. It is perfect for a hunting rifle, imo, which is what I got this rifle for. It's not so light that you'll set it off on any branch, but it's nothing that will pull a shot easily under stress.
Going with it is th RCBS die set. Brass can be made by simply sizing .308 winchester brass. Load data is available from numerous sources including Hodgdon: Load Data Center.
The front trigger guard lock screw is missing, but new screws can be purchased inexpensively: click here for screws and the rifle is otherwise complete. Keep in mind it's just the locking screw, not an actual fastener. This is just a small screw that keeps the main screw from backing out under hard use, such as war fighting, of which I hope you won't have to use this rifle for. I don't see that the screw is necessary, but it can be had for very little bit of money, I was planning to just tack it on to the next order I made with Midway, but hadn't ordered from them in a while.
Scope not included, but also for sale: http://www.bayoushooter.com/forums/...Vortex-Viper-HS-4-16x44&p=1105919#post1105919

You can see in the last pics, the screw I referred to. It's a non-issue, imo, but I wouldn't blame someone if they wanted the complete screw set, which is why I linked to the MidwayUSA part.
Comes with RCBS dies, 2 unfired rounds, and 78 pieces of once-fired brass.
