There has been mention of cost, well we do have a budget but I can assure you that a derlin track is not an issue.
Personally I dont like the idea of trying to coat the inside of a wooden track. I just cant see how you could get a uniform finish & I definitely dont like the idea of bare wood inside the track.
A free floating derlin track is the method I have used on the last couple of guns, the tracks are trapped either end but do allow minimal movement.
The tracks I use, could also be simply affixed at one end with a countersunk s/s screw!
I would however like to see some other type of plastic used in place of derlin, I posted a link a few pages back.
Our gun is already unusual & I hope is stays that way, "all in all" I love all the input & especially the different opinions - keep them comming we will get there in the end
