Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Mausers and Military Rifles Need Mauser Gunsmith/gunmaker.

We are spoiled to have so many good gun plumbers including here on this board.

Jim Kobe did the rebarrel on my JC Higgins model 51 I believe, Commerical mauser action. Went from 270 to 9.3x62 with a shillen #4 at 22 inches did a side swing safety and added a Timney trigger too. Dropped mine in a McMillan stock. less than 3 week turn around a few years ago . My favorite rifle.

You would do well to deal with Jim Kobe.

Another vote for Jim Kobe, he does outstanding work promptly

Bill Jacobs does all of mine.

I inquired about him doing a rifle for me and he never even responded to my emails. The Nathaniel Myers guy in Ohio is close but not taking work for a long time. I’m still looking for a builder.

Check with Bill Jacobs at Bolt and Barrel Gunsmithing. He is in SC. Hopefully that isn't a deal breaker. He does awesome work though.

Too bad he is no longer accepting work, otherwise Mike McCabe would have done a fantastic job for you.
