My wife came in and asked what was wrong, explained it to her. She takes the rifle looks at it and says "Turn the front barrel band around". I looked at it and went Duh it's on backwards.
Looked back at the pictures of the rifle, when I first posted it after I got it and cleaned it up and it was on right. Apparently after Hurricane Michael, when we disassembled all 40 weapons for cleaning and oiling it ended up reversed.
Now in my defense I haven't been sleeping well the last few months, I'm up til all hours of the night, and normally fall asleep around 0400, and get woken up around 0900-1000. So being tired I just couldn't wrap my head around what the issue was.
Just waiting on the sight hood and she'll be complete. I'll oil the sling and age it some, so it doesn't look so out of place.
