Have a couple of Norwegian Krag actions that I have always to intended to build up into sporters. Probably been dang near 50 years. Also had a Lee-Enfield #1 Mk 5, was "sporterized" into a $50 truck gun. Sold it last year to a friend who is restoring it to mil configuration, at great cost. Let us not get off on the boat I have been building for 6 or 7 years....

I found with custom work and custom built guns, you start off this way. If you do it enough, the waiting can end up being the best part.

A "Smolt" that needs to be re-blued & new grips.

Been sitting in my closet for a couple of years now.

The majority of my shoulder arms I would consider "unfinished projects," since I've got optics, white lights, various accessories to put on them, ammo to acquire and test, et cetera.

Problem is I keep getting distracted by the latest shiny thing...

I have an "M16"A1 upper and shorty triangular handguards that I hastily bought with dreams of building an XM607 clone.

Boy, did I fail to check how deep the water is before jumping in. Getting a good replica of the moderator? Pfft.

Getting a stock? Yowza.

Perpetual projects around here ... Gun, bike, car, house

Nothing wrong with that as long as you're occasionally completing one.

Nah...I'm kinda compulsive neurotic on projects. Once I start, I keep going until it's finished. Hurricanes, earthquakes, tornadoes, civil war, asteroids, munchkin attacks don't stop me. I keep going until it's finished.

On the other hand, I'm terrible regarding the aftermath of a project. Cleaning up, putting tools back, etc. Probably some kind of genetic deficiency.
