Karnis is another that is top notch and highly reccomended by me and many others.
I sure hope you get your rifle back, and soon. Bad situation, freind.

karnis is refurbing an old Mod 37 Remington stock for me at this time. I think I will be happy. Jim62 does excellent work, he has disappeared on me and after doing a search he has done it more than once. A few guys[un named on the fire] are getting a little anxious also.

It may be getting time for a bucket of tar, a sack of feathers, and a road trip to visit with this old boy if he can be found.

Hold on while I wipe the look of surprise off of my face....
I figured him to be a f'n azzwipe, and looks like I wasn't disappointed.....
Good luck fellas, looks like you have a lot of company in being taken.

Butch, I read that statement to read 'people on the fire who are azzholes' not a blanket statement. I haven't been around as much as some, but to name two, Mickey and Eddie do not strike me as falling in this category... Butch, My comment was of course not a blanket statement. Sorry for the lack of clarity - There are azzholes on the 'Fire?

If I recall, Big Stick sniffed him out years ago. Looks like he was right again.

Butch, I hope that works out for you as well as the others.
If one peruses his posts here, he reveals himself as a reasonably knowledgeable yet unstable, hot-headed, homophobic azzhole with a true gift of being able to type faster than his brain can process. Character revealed.
Fingers crossed for you my friend!

I hope it all works out for you guys. I first noticed Jim62 when he just wouldn't accept that Hornady had changed their 180 gr 30 cal bullets and was very rude and racist on that thread. I guess it is a good lesson to avoid any dealings with some of the other guys here that continually attack other people.

Wasn't he the one accusing Luxus of being crooked? Ironic.
Call the Kansas Attorney General's Office, you'd be surprised how helpful the consumer fraud offices can be.

Having dealt with Jim several times, speaking with him on the phone, and corresponding through PMs a lot I just find it hard to believe that he harbors any nefarious intentions here.
I'm still of the belief that something in his personal life such as his health, marriage, or family issues are preventing him from responding to the OP's requests.
Jim, if you read this ever I'm holding out hope that your issues will be resolved and that you'll complete your transactions with Butch and the others.
I'm wishing you the best from MN.

Me either. Last time we talked he said he wasn't going to do stocks anymore and go back into making bronze. ???? Big question mark going on here.
He did a wonderful job on my 280ai stock, a pretty much rush job, and had it back to me for my vet only elk hunt. Really hope he is okay. This is just strange.

Visited with my attorney and my Son who is also an attorney about this. We have a plan. I have checked with the BATFE and found he doesn't have a FFL. Legally he can't possess my barreled action. It also appears that the local police have dealt with him in the past. I sent him a certified letter and will pursue this. The drive to Dodge City would be a pleasure.

Wow. First sitka deer with my first stock. Which he still has, btw. Now possibly Jim, who has my stock set and my gun. I'm sure not picking guys to work on my stuff too well.

As one who over 20 years ago suffered significant loss as the fraud/bankruptcy of a custom gunmaker, I have learned to be careful. Careful about putting too much up front, careful to make sure I really know the craftsman, visit in person while job underway.
The guy who really ripped me continues on, despite some fraud investigations in the last few years, and is nationally known.
Caveat emptor on custom stuff...
