Brass Mikov
Noticed I didn't have a Mikov of my own in my meger collection , so I made myself this'un ...It's got brass bolsters , brass lever , brass pins , the scales are ivory "corian", thicker than normal , also did simple filework....also made the liners out of .050 steel ( thicker than stock) , the bail is made outa 1/8" brazing rod !.... She fires hard & locks up good ....I'm happy with it !

Re: Brass Mikov
SWEET! That's a beautiful combination of brass and ivory.
Are your brass bolsters attached only by the pivot pin? The one I'm working on has two recessed 24k gold torx screws in addition to the pin. A little overkill, but, they ain't goin' anywhere!!!
