That one looks very well put together from the examples I saw last week at the south store. The parts all look really nice. Any chance we can get a picture of the receiver 'legs' where they go down into the stock? Any etchings of any sort?
Someone on the CMP forums might be willing to do a straight up trade with you for a Winchester trigger group for the IHC you got...that's a score in and of itself. The rest look like SA, which is just as well.
