I kindof agree with scorch however I would like to point out that a lot of the work is very well done, very nice stock(probably cost a pretty penny in the 50/60s), good bluing, flip up sights... overall a very skillfully done job. I would like to point out though that even though I like paracord and have 2 rifles with paracord slings on them, in your case it does not do the rifle justice...
