Ive just read "Customary Concerns".
...I wanted a re barrel and was told 11 months, Im sorry but thats BS. Its a pretty harsh "correct" IMO view of the custom gun industry but will it have the affect of getting these idle smiths of there arses and bring some integrity to the industry?
If Echols told someone it was 11months for a re- barrel job, its most likely due to the fact that his shop already has the priority task of fulfilling complete rifle build orders already in process and possibly other previously booked re-barrel jobs.
as already stated, such top tier smiths are rarely idle.
