Was it any big deal to get a M98 bolt shroud fitted to the M96? Congrats. Terry Terry, Sorry I missed your question on the safety. As I bought the rifle used I have no idea. I had been considering a lightweight 7x57 build and just could not pass this rifle up when I found it. I do know via email exchange with Mr. Wisner that he built the rifle many years ago and stocked it in mannlicher fashion in black walnut. Short of the Shilen barrel and Swede action, all of the metal was made by him. I particularly like the quarter rib treatment over the receiver ring mounting one of his fine rings. Somewhere along the way the original stock was replaced by the one you see that Fred Speiser crafted. As it is a bit "clubby" compared to the metal, the rifle is currently at Dean Zollinger's for a some "diet" work on the stock. Looking forward to seeing it finished. Conduct is the best proof of character.

CB Sir, The action is one of 50 built by Pete Grisel prior to his involvement in the development of the Dakota action with Don Allen. This particular one is serial number 49. I have only see one other for sale but it was stocked with a 13" LOP capped with a 1" pad so I passed hoping I would find another. I eventually did. Conduct is the best proof of character.

I'm looking to upgrade, just never bump into higher end customs around here. Care to share some sort of value range just in case a similar Grisel drops into my lap? Ray Life is brief. Treat yourself.

Ray North to well north of 5k depending upon the quality of the build and the maker's name.

They were listed at Julias a few auctions back... I just liked the picture so much that I copied it off...that bottom gun would be about as good as it could get for me... that piece of walnut is just something incredible and the full length rib...the unique checkering pattern... the whole deal for me...
