Hey Everyone, It's great to be here on 24 Hour Campfire! We are a full service gunsmith shop in Calera, AL. We operate out of a 4000sq/ft facility and specialize in producing custom shotguns and bolt rifles. Check us out at www.HuDisCo.com and on facebook at HDC Gunsmithing. To kick things off properly I wanted to extend a special offer to the members here. We will pick two members that respond to this post to build rifles for at the cost of parts only. We'll throw in all the labor. There are a few caveats. 1. The rifle has to be built on our M2014 action, and; 2. The rifle has to use high quality parts (Barrel, Stock, and Trigger) purchased though HDC, and; 3. We'll be supplying the reamer so standard chamberings only please (no wildcats), and; 4. We want you to write up your thoughts on the rifle here on the forum. Introduce yourself below and send us a PM on why you should be picked. We'll choose the 2 winners after Jan 1. Looking forward to working with everyone here. We've heard great things about the campfire and are excited to be here. Best regards, Nathan Hunt

$375 for a barrel installation! I'm hoping that includes finish work?

As a formality only, Nathan did set up an advertising arrangement with me.
As an aside, it's been a while since I built a rifle, but after talking to him, I think I have the itch to build another, and I am going to send some parts his way.
I have a feeling Nathan is going to do pretty well around here once his wares hit.

I wish him luck. As far as wanting a rifle built. I have all that taken care of. I will, however, make a suggestion that he builds ingwe a new rifle. It needs to be a 270 win. Maybe some of us can pitch in a few dollars to get this rolling....

I would like a rifle built to test but I do not want to pay for any of the parts.
Please see my name when deciding if I am the winner.
I would also like to add that I am a close personal friend of shrapnel.

Welcome. It makes me happy to see fellow vets starting their own businesses. I'd be game to build a rifle, you can never have too many!

Thanks for everyone's comments and pm's. I really appreciated the pm's. You guys have put together a great group here.
We spent all morning in the woods and the rest of the day celebrating an early Christmas with family.
I'll try to post up some customer results with our rifles and some more info on our action when I get back into the shop on Monday.
Hope everyone is having a very Merry Christmas.
Best regards,
Nathan

You have potential to do well, if you can separate wheat from chaff, around our area. Lots of precision rifle shooters and competitive folks around central/north Alabama, to dig in with, doing it right. Best of luck. I'll paruse some more, as you get the site updated, and am on the warpath for a new build, anyway.

Yeah, some prices might be a good idea.
Congrats, you won our gunsmithing services for free but you have to use our action. Our action costs $4000.

Nathan, welcome. Count me in on the rifle build. I'd be happy to win it.
I've used these guys for a cerakote job recently and the work was top notch.
