I design stamping dies for the automotive industry and work in a tool and die shop. I have access to everything from a file to a 5 axis laser. I'm just figuring out how I want to do this.
My plan right now is to do the inletting on a knee mill and then profile on the band saw. For the final shape I may do some of the cutting free hand on the knee mill and then go to hand grinders , files and sanding blocks.
This morning I was back in the CNC dept asking what cutters they had I could use for the barrel grove and the head of the dept wanted me to model it up in 3d cad and he would just 5 axis cut the whole thing for me. lol
This is a winter project that I will start after thanks giving when my hunting season is done. So no hurry and I think hand carving this would be the fun way for doing it.

Well you are set to go you do not need my help. I use a 1.00 inch and a 1.25 round router bit for the barrel and action groves.
