Dave refinished an original 404 Jeff for me to original condition and did an outstanding job! Besides that, he is a great person to deal with!!! | |||

That is one fine little jewel of a 7 x 57. I would not mind owning that one myself. | |||

Very nice looking rifle. Would love to see how it handles. Being picky, but he mentions in the beginning that it was a VZ-24, but it has a Mauser Banner on the front ring. Did not think those two ever went together.

Thanks for posting! I have one of Dave's 9.3x62 Husky-actioned customs. I love the rifle... very well built. I am thinking about getting him to build me a .300 H&H in the future. On the plains of hesitation lie the bleached bones of ten thousand, who on the dawn of victory lay down their weary heads resting, and there resting, died.

Great video & a real beautiful rifle! I wish the ACGG would set up a youtube channel and do more of these type of videos. Best, Dave | |||

I believe he says 20" in the video. | |||

Dave is a personal friend, and I used to visit his workshop regularly in the past. I keep getting his newsletter and e-mails from him on his work on a regular basis. His work has to be seen to be believed. These days he is building fewer complete rifles as he gets a lot of restoration work as well as shotgun work including from some of the London names. But, if someone wants to get a rifle built by him, you couldn't find a nicer person to talk to. He also has a pay as your gun gets built option that is very good for someone who might find investing a large sum in a custom rifle difficult. Glad to see his Youtube channel here - I didn;t know about it earlier. Thanks for posting. Mehul Kamdar "I ask, sir, what is the militia? It is the whole people.

Superb rifle, perfectly thought out and executed. I think including the ACGG hallmark is important too, particularly from an investment standpoint, didn't know that was possible. Interesting that it began life as a Czech VZ24 and had an Oberndorf banner added, something I wanted to do on a Mexican Mauser but my gunsmith at the time refused to do.

Question about the Guild Hallmark. Does the Guild member just add the ACGG hallmark to the customers rifle or is there more to it than that? Is the rifle build recorded by the Guild when is there is a Hallmark added or some other records kept? Just curious. Best Regards, Dave | |||

That Mauser banner could lead to a lot of problems & contraversey down the road depending on how closely it copied the original. Doug Humbarger NRA Life member Tonkin Gulf Yacht Club 72'73. Yankee Station Try to look unimportant. Your enemy might be low on ammo. | |||
