Question for rifle builders
« on: March 14, 2015, 01:54:56 AM »
Do any of you guys that build these long rifles take on projects for other folks? In other words, If someone were to purchase a "kit" from Track or MBS or ? would there be someone willing to assemble the rifle in the white so the purchaser can finish the wood and metal?

I already know this is way beyond my ability and would rather put some cash in someone's pocket rather than mess it up.

You might be interested in contacting Tip Curtis. He offers many styles of rifles in the white for you to finish.

I've done it a couple of times, but I much prefer to get excited about a particular gun and then build it the way I want. Then I put it out there on the market and hope somebody else likes it too! 

Doing a custom build is more stressful for me.

What's there not to like about your work Ken?  No wonder they sell.   :-)  Best wishes,   Marc
