What to do about a lusy gunsmithing job?

KMKeller, It is often that we judge others by the motives we ourselves have. Is that how you come up with the idea that I had an ulterior motive? Perhaps you are not able to deal with people on an honest straight forward basis, and see that in others. I, on the other hand prefer to be up front, take chances on the good of others and suffer the consequences of my bad decisions. People are quite amazing, I have had numerous people contact me asking if I had any left over parts from a couple of classic cars I had. When I have told them yes and that I would ship and then email the cost of shipping to them, not one stiffed me. I gave them the parts as it was better to see the parts in use than gathering dust in my shop. I'd guess I shipped to about 10 people in this way. But I'm not a fool, I would not trust you.
If we wish to discuss logic, please explain how it is logical that Oleg's prior intent should should dictate his future actions. I may intend to buy a new car, keep it forever in mint condition, but if some one destroys it, it is not illogical to make the best of the situation. Man, or is that girl, you need to get your thought process straightened out. Life must be difficult when one is unable to think.
Which brings us to the point, should I post my sexual preference, all past and present sexual experiences, a list of relatives, friends and accquaintances prior to posting? Have you done the same? I missed that box when I was registering. Do you know of a site on the web where I may research this info for at least the populace of the posters of this board? It must be dark where you keep your head.
I would imagine that if you heard of, and I am only guessing now and giving you unearned credit, a mugger suing the person he tried to mug for beating the crapola out of him/her, you would think that is wrong. If you attack someone, you should expect to take a good shot back. And remember, I was jumped on with both feet. ( I don't need to make quips about people pointing fruit at me. I will defend myself.) The point you are putting forth here is basically that the mugger is entitled to sue, and yet you contradict yourself when you say that you are among those who will not allow themselves to be screwed. But then, perhaps you have an ulterior motive in defending Runt. Maybe you really think the mugger is right, and you just want something from Runt.
Now, when you find that this pisses you off, remember that you attacked me. Have enough spine, I doubt enough intelligence to reason through this, to accept that you asked for this. After all, you are the one who promulgates the idea that we should attack those who offend us. You are dismissed. Oh, and work on your understanding of personal responsibility. Sheesh, to think they let you have guns. Mike
P.S. The latin term for the false arguments you put forth, and for which I returned in kind, is ad hominem. It means against the man. This is the type of argument used by those unthinking individuals who feel that it is best to attack the person than come up with logical points that refute the other persons argument. I just wanted to demonstrate back to you what you were doing. I doubt that you are introspective enough to see it in yourself. Maybe my answer will goad you into thinking.
 
hd51fl, your attitude sucks, and you haven't contributed anything useful to this thread. Maybe you should just crawl back under your rock, as the "turn the other cheek" message is clear, though the way you presented it is just rude. I (and I presume the others reading) don't need you to tell us to bend over and like it; Oleg's gunsmith has already offered that option. This is a discussion of a REASONABLE resolution to an unacceptable situation, not an argument about whether or not it is reasonable to expect a resolution. May I suggest that you take your own advice, and just let it drop?

KMKeller, gk1 No, this is not a discussion of a reasonable solution to a bungled gun. This is a response to my being jumped on for offering a practical option if Oleg was going to sporterize his rifle. This is also an attack on me for offering to lend something to Oleg.
KMKeller, That you are unable to comprehend, is apparent. That you are ignorant is apparent. Let me put this clearly. I was attacked without reason, and it pains you that I did not roll over. Typical bully syndrome. I will drop this, but only because I can see that what you were unable to learn at your mother's knee, I will not be able to teach you. Besides, if I continue this, I will have to start charging you for the therapy. Read your last post, it seems to me that you are beginning to rave. Drooling too?
gk1, Could not come up with a good argument? Ad hominem, remember that from the last post I made. God you are a sharp one. Out of all that I had written, you were not bright enough to find fault with one point. The method you dislike, big deal, try and refute me. No don't bother, you won't get a response. I have wasted enough time trying to get KMKellers brain kickstarted, I have no time for you. Mike
 
This is a good opportunity for everybody to hang it up on this one. Point and counterpoint is not helping the issue of Oleg and his rifle. Who is right and who is wrong at this point isn't as important as what is helpful and what isn't.
 
I appreciate the offer of the peep sight, I will hold off on that simply because my schedule is quite busy now and I am not certain when I'll get to work on the rifle.

It would be nice if all the well-meaning folks here on TFL stopped picking on each other, even if it is done on my behalf.
 
gunsmith?

Dear Sir:
I know how you feel. But, as I lost my son to a drunk driver last year I first thought of shooting this guy; instead I went and told him off face to face and now, after him getting nothing, I have just washed my hands of the entire thing. Joe would have wanted it that way (Joe Bonar of Novaks 45 Shop.)
I don't know what to say; but why don't you just do the same and rely on the Forum guys to steer you to a good smith.
Just a suggestion; but it still hurts - right?
