JulesGot my forends today
from my friend down south. 1 is black lamanite and 1 is brown lamanite...wood blanks came from Boyds. Both are 2 1/4" wide X 10" long. The fit and finish is perfict....as good as any i've seen from anyone. He uses the hanger bar system like V.V. and Bullberry. His prices are better then you'll find anywhere for this quality of work. So if your planing on gettin a custom grip or forend or a set, send him an e-mail at>>>>
jmsjhw@hotmail.com His name is James. You wont be sorry.
BTW, I ordered them last week. How's that for service?

JulesI really can't say for sure. You see, I kinda helped him along with the correct barrel channel fit and hanger bar fit so he may have cut me a brake. I talk to him a couple times a week, not just about contenders. He has a contender grip and forend on ebay at this time for $125.00. That is his asking price for that set. Maybe that is his everyday price. Ask around and see what others are charging. I'll bet his price is at least 25% less. I wish I could give a hard figure but I really don't know. He's not trying to make a killin but he will make a name for himself if he keeps doing this kind of work.
I know he reads this forum and maybe will reviel himself someday.

Sean VHA #60013Jules,
I have sent him an e-mail. I liked the pics you previously sent, and am quite interested in seeing more of his product!

JulesHe will make what you request Sean. It's tough to explain the style to someone without a picture I know. But I think he does a very good job just by telling him. I'll take some pictures of mine and send them to you.
I'm trying to get him to do some buttstocks also.
He went hunting and will be back Sunday evening to answer your e-mail.
