Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Custom Rifles & Wildcats Picts of Paul Jaeger Custom Rifles

Does anyone know a source for them? or have a few such picts lying around somewhere in their puter?

My next project is bolt gun based on a FN Mauser action and a very nice chunk of English walnut. I have always admired the few Jaegers I have handled and want the woodwork to have many of the features in his custom guns. A serch on the inet was not very helpful.

It is going to be a 7mm Rem as the receiver in hand is already changed to a mag bolt face and rails.

Thanks in advance for any help.

no pics but a little background which might help.
paul jeager owned and operated his buisness in jenkintown pa
for many years. it is an affluant area in the suburbs of phila.
he also made very good triggers, detachable scope mounts and i believe the first detachable sling swivels. he was always very
articulate in his appearance as well as his work. in later years
he brought on a man named dietrick appel who i believe was related and also from germany. that didnt seem to go well as in
a few years he was gone. as i recall the store and business
closed in the 70s.

Hollowell's often have them. Same with Champlin's. I would look there.

I think you'll find some is the custom rifles section of gunsinternational.com

Didn't Dietrick ASppel end up at NECGW?

Yes.

Cabela's in Hamburg, PA., had a couple Jaeger rifles in the gun library just before Christmas. Probably still there.
