I owned a nice Classic styled 7x57 by Flaigs. It was nicely done and shot well.
From what I've learned they were a small family gunsmithing company in Pennsylvania. The owner was a German who had a collection of Nazi stuff and was considered by some to be a little too fond of Hitler.
They tended to build customs on mauser actions and used their own barrels,some of which may have been made for them by Lothar Walther.
They stocked according to the preference of the customer,everything from American classic to California weatherby style.
I have heard most of this. I bought a 7x57 Flaigs a few years ago at a local gun show and ended up selling it. I then had an opportunity to buy a .243 chambered Flaigs rifle that was rebored, and stamped as a 240 PSP (Page's Super Pooper). I still have it and it shoots very well. It is a Mauser action in a really nice tiger maple stock.
