A loud explosion was heard after the fire became visible. Reports have come in that it is Pac-Nor Barreling, Inc., manufacturers of precision rifle barrels. Everyone is safe according to the Del Norte Curry County Scanner Feed.

Flames have fully engulfed the structure with major damage. A specialized forest crew is on the scene.

Saw that yesterday, real shame. I've used quite a few of their barrels and they are as good as any other. They don't get the recognition they should.

Oy vey!

I feel for those folks that might have had an heirloom or hard to replace rifle there.

Damn.... I also use their barrels and, with only one exception, they've been very, very good barrels... I hope the business recovers and comes back strong..

I’m thankful no people were hurt. It would be bad to have a rifle in for work.

Best Bud has a home not a mile from there.
He was talking about getting a Kimber Classic rebarreled there. I hope it wasn't in the shop.

I have two actions there right now.

Actually, that sucks. But they'll make good on them. Sucky timing though.

They were really close to done according to Jay a week or so ago. Probably out for cerakoting. I hope. I’m not too worried about them. PacNor is a good company. It stinks to have a great barrel maker suffer a loss like this.
