So far this year I have barreled 2 CRF Win 70s, 1 Rock Island manufactured "Springfield" 1903 (w/a 'high' serial number), A Win made U.S. Model 1917, a half dozen Mauser '98s, a couple of push feed 70s, a Howa 1500, a MRC 1999 LA Mag , a CZ 527 , a Defiance Tenacity and 8 or 9 Rem 700s. Those who come to me aren't willing to wait 6 months to a year for a barrel maker to install a barrel. I know, Douglas does it in weeks, but most want 'more' than a Douglas (I have nothing against Douglas barrels personally.) Those who think they only "specialize" in 700s , well,,,, I just don't know what they are thinking! I have fit and finished my last laminate stock and and am considering the same for hardwood stocks. Few are willing to pay for the hours involved in completing such stocks and I'm not willing to do a "half way" job. Unless you stated all of your "gun building experience before 1974............... And in my mid 30s actually attended and graduated from an accredited 2yr gunsmithing program at MCC. I didn't fall off the turnip truck yesterday or the day before!!
