In 2021 I paid them for 2 barrels took them 1 year to finally send me the barrels
once I tried them both were not head spaced correctly and showed case seperation see attached pics.
on both the 375 wby and 340 wby i did check them with no go gaged and off corse
i was able to close the bolt also the barrels were also difficult to tighten them with the wrench thus also
the tolerance to the reciever was of.
took me several call and email no anwser finally made contact with them and was asked to returned them
i did early feb 2023 guess what now im out of my barrels and money and have called them dozen times to anwser
and emailed no response Im frustated with them all i want my money back and please please do not ask them for any work
you will be sorry .

Damn few bargains in gunsmithing work. Sorry about your experience.
 
I wish I would have read this before buying mine. My bolt wouldn't close all the way so I sent it back. He said he resolved the issue and didnt send it back until I emailed him SEVERAL times. I just got min back and I have the same problem. I am super pissed.

It's been over two years that I've been trying to reach you guys. The phones are disconnected. I've emailed them multiple times and even sent them certified letters and I don't have a response. Never got my barrels back this morning. I've been asking them to return my money, and no answers.

Get a lawyer to send a demand letter. Depending on where this dirtbag operates, there may be laws in place for consumer protection that could be helpful.

This shit really bugs me. A machinist can use mechanics lein laws to retain my stuff if I don't pay him. But I can't enter his property and seize my stuff if he doesn't do the work. Hopefully this turd gave you a receipt for your gun. Do you have proof that he has it? Email correspondence may suffice if he responded acknowledging receipt.

I have been using a "Personal Property" rider on my State Farm homeowner's policy to cover guns when I travel with them.
I have several firearms, but only one is worth over $20K (A Heym double rifle).
Very interested.
Would firearms be covered for damage, as well as, complete loss?
I'll can let the State Farm rider cover my watches...

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.
