I have a mint numbers matching 1909 receiver that I spoke with Roger Green about a number of years ago as a Mannlicher 35 Whelen. The cogs are again turning.

He worked on this '09 Mauser. Fixed several things that were wrong. It shoots great.

I was able to contact Jim today via email. He has the job. I have to take care of a couple other things first, so he will be seeing my Ruger #1 in early January.

Jim has done several customs for me as well as a couple walnut stock jobs. Jim has a very very good turnaround time and is pricing is good. He doesn't suffer fools though!

I took the privilege of using your name, having seen some of your guns Jim made. May have overstepped.

Late to the party. Mr. Kobe did two projects for me. Both well done, at a fair price, in a reasonable length of time.

Still own one. Sold the other to pay hospital bills a few years ago. If someone knows where the LH 6.5x55 Mauser with Gentry safety and svelte walnut stock went to, give me a shout...

I don't understand my post quoting DF. I very seldom have a drink anymore, so I can't blame that.

Ha!

Hadn’t noticed.

You and Jim are top notch in my book.
