Wanting a custom rifle built.
« on: July 05, 2011, 12:30:34 PM »
I am wanting to have a custom rifle built for my son for a graduation present. Can anyone recommend a good gunsmith that builds rifles? I live in N.E. Oklahoma. Thanks in advance.

A little info would help.... Bolt gun,semi-auto? caliber? What will he use it for?..........

It will be a bolt action, I am thimking in 7mm mag or 300 win mag. I am wanting a real nice gun that he will be able to hand down to his kids but don't have fortune to spend either. Thinking around the 3k mark.
Thanks

hale:  you can do what you want for one heck of a lot less than $3000 and still give your a beautiful custom rifle that can easily become a family heirloom.  For example, a new Kimber, whatever model but in your caliber choice, with a custom stock or some personal engraving, or a new Mauser that has some custom stock or engraving work, possibly a inlaid family emblem or something; and there are others but I think you can make yourself happy for a lot less.  Just throwing out a few suggestions.  HTH.

My friend had a 6.5 x 47 lapua built by GAP (Georgia Precision) and he couldnt be more pleased with it.  I would suggest giving them a call.
