OP RAS Campfire Outfitter Joined: Dec 2005 Posts: 13,035 In the woods...	Since I have started the threads, figured we needed a place for these lowly rifles. Here is my only one at the moment. Bubba (H&H Zehner) was a German gunsmith shop who worked out of Frankfurt in the 1950s. I know a fella here in VA who knows of this shops line of work from work on Mausers and shotguns. He will see it this weekend and let me know what he can. Never heard of him doing a 99. Anyways, lets see yours.

Everything was cool after I figured out what a file was. And the Randall pictured did a lot to help. I have seen the top of the mountain, and it is good.

You can buy them from other people than the manufacturer but you're going to be paying some premium $. I've been making some knives and I've been modeling my blades after one of their big game skinners. Mine isn't near that pretty though. MM Tell me the odds of putting grease on the same pancake?

I grew up in the St Clair Shores / Clinton Township area. I hear you guys aren't getting the white stuff that much this year.

I live in Lake Orion but grew up in Shelby Township. I remember when Lakeside Mall and the entire metropolis now surrounding it was all farm fields. I'll have to keep my eye out for a Randall. Perhaps I'll get lucky and see one at a flea market or garage sale one day for $20

I was just a kid but I felt like I was in Montana or something. Once we kicked up a big buck and I felt like I was going to have a heart attack. I think it is all fast food joints now...
