I have been chatting recently with both of these gentlemen about a rifle project that I am about to begin, they have been nothing but kind, and extremely helpful!

Their knowledge of big bore rifles is more vast than most people's knowledge of guns altogether!

These are the kind of professional, and knowledgable individuals that make this sport so great.

Couldn't agree more. Going to the Ivory Beads Gunshop in Covina Ca. tomorrow to complete the paperwork on a 375 H&H that Wayne just completed. The pics he sent look great and the stock work was impressive . Had it built on a GMA action and piece and finished with gun cote.

Going to meet robgunbuilder in Vegas later this month and try out the 600 OK. Wayne's guns are great quality at a reasonable price. And his customer service is second to none. Both of the above listed gentlemen adds to my enthusiasm and my level of knowledge.

I purchased a .416 Remmie from Ivory Beeds a number of years ago. They have a first rate shop and a lot of nice firearms (mainly shotguns).

Echo all said here 100%. I was so happy with the work on my 600 OK that I had AHR build me a fancy 585AHR for my dad's 70th birthday. Wayne (and Ed Plummer with whom I had also spoken) - the very best.

I met and had dinner with Rob (and his lovely wife) when I was in Vegas last year. Again, better people simply do not exist. I was immediately made welcome and comfortable and we had a great evening.

This is why I made the post earlier about "Good folk..." We really are surrounded by the best and I am honored and humbled by the goodness of people.

Sincerely,
Paul

Robgunbuilder and Ed Plummer (founder of AHR)worked very closely on bringing the 600 OK to the shooting public. I think it is really Rob's baby, made available to the public by Ed. Add Ed Hubel to the mix and those three guys are the center of the sporting big bore universe.

Rob is a dear friend and hunting buddy ... take everything I say about him from that perspecitive!

If thats the case hogleg why you email me talking about you wanting to buy a rifle from my company demanding my phone number

I am exploring all options before I write a check, nothing personal!

If I recall, I don't believe I "demanded" anything, I simply wanted your number so that I could call and discuss the specifics of what I wanted done, so that I would have a ball park figure.

No ill will was ever intended.

Ill make this quite simple I do not wish to do business with you so you are more then welcome to take your money where ever you want

Don't really understand the hostility, I never said anything negative about you or your company, I was doing nothing more than posting my experiences with the two gentlemen I mentioned.

I am attempting to consult anyone I can about what will be needed to get my project off of the ground, as far as I can tell I haven't stuck my tongue out at anyone.

Sorry you feel that way.

Wow, what's with the hostility?

Nice way to secure future customers HogLeg just seems to be getting all the info he can with a build and you call bullshit and a throw a tantrum! Unless there is more going on behind the scenes you are out of order. I admit some people are a PITA that are better off seeking goods elsewhere but I see none of that here. Enlighten me as to why you are coming across as an ass. You are not doing your company any good posting as you are.

John

Express Rifles seems like a real Asshole. I have two AHR, 404 and 9.3X62 both great rifles done on time and a good price. A good friend in town has 6-7. And Wayne is always ready to talk and answer questions.

But maybe there's more to the story than we are privy to..........

Ditto on Express rifles. You do a real good job pissing people off with so few woods. At least your short and to the point.

Where in this thread?
What's his new name?

Silly Thors460/ExpressRifles think I am Axel.

I am Bohemond no Axel.

Paranoid man.

Yes no kidding I do not hide the fact i was once thors460 but funny thing is I was never banned and the site owner can confirm that as well so bohemond-axel

http://forums.accuratereloadin...4711043/m/9241006901

believe this is the post where you admitted to it

You are no smart Thors. English not your language? Read that thread again. I don't think you make guns just attack people who not buy YOUR BS. You have bad manners maybe go back to farm or junkyard.

I really don't have time to do a run around with you I think if I was to fake a career there would be a lot better then to pick then a gunsmith doesn't actually make you wealthy and the women do not go out cruising for a gunsmith either.But on another note my partner and I will be attending the SCI show in Reno you are more then welcome to stop by and chat it up if you'd please

bohemond is not axel, nor any of the other troll handles that have been used by that troll

This thread was started to compliment AHR as far as I can tell. Perhaps if there are personal issues to air they should be done so via PM?

These on-board pissing contests really dont solve anything and tend to reflect poorly on everyone. Take it OFF line!-Rob

Rob, I couldn't agree more.

Dave

Although I have no personal experience dealing with Rob, I highly recommend Wayne at AHR. He did a great job upgrading my CZ and in a timely manner.

Here are some of AHR's products:
My dad's 585AHR on CZ action




My 600OK on GMA action:

And me, Pop and his 585

I hope so, my friend, I sure hope so - for the beasties, that is!

The product of the mind of RGB, the hands of Bitterroot and Ed, as well as the fabrications of Macifej and again RGB should put an end to any troubles the beasties might try to bring upon us.

Jungle drums say white men coming with Big Guns! Much ammo and much whiskey will be consumed. Many large creatuires will die( not run far due to big holes both sides). The villagers will eat well. All will be well in Africa!-rob

They still play those big drums like in the old movies ...??

I HAVE to get over there now ...!!!

Lots of photos please!

what RGB said, plus one!
