I need some trigger work on my Hoffman Arms with the pre-64 Winchester M70 action. Also it's a single shot at present because the magazine door pops open with recoil. Who have you had work done by and would you recommend them? ______________________ DRSS ______________________ Hunt Reports 2015 His & Her Leopards with Derek Littleton of Luwire Safaris - http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/2971090112 2015 Trophy Bull Elephant with CMS http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/1651069012 DIY Brooks Range Sheep Hunt 2013 - http://forums.accuratereloadin...901038191#9901038191 Zambia June/July 2012 with Andrew Baldry - Royal Kafue http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/7971064771 Zambia Sept 2010- Muchinga Safaris http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/4211096141 Namibia Sept 2010 - ARUB Safaris http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/6781076141 | ||

Stan Jackson seems to be the go to guy in S.C.AK Andy Hawk also is pretty good and M70 trigger's is one of his specialty's. DRSS NRA life AK Master Guide 124 | |||

After speaking to a number of people including gunsmiths Stan seems to be the go to guy if machining is required. The guy from precision arms was also highly recomended for general work.

And may your bullets shoot as swell As Fred Bear's arrow's flew; And may your nose work just as well As Jack O'Connor's too. May winds be never at your tail When stalking down the steep; May bears be never on your trail When packing out your sheep. May the hundred pounds upon you Not make you break or trip; And may the plane in which you flew Await you at the strip. -Seth Peterson | |||

Stan does some very good work, but my favorite alaskan smith is Steve at alaskan custom firearms. | |||

Yes, Steve Untiet at Alaska Custom Firearms does great work. He did some work on my Marlin XLR and I couldn't be happier. He does some amazing work, i've handled a few of his custom lightweight mountain rifles and those things are works of art. "We band of 45-70'ers" | |||

Its pretty hard not to like a rifle that shoots under moa and weighs less than 5 lbs with scope and open sights. | |||

FWIW, I just had Precision Arms screw a Sako 416 Rem barrel on to one of my Sako AV 375 H&Hs. He also had to open the barrel channel to accommodate the heavier 416 barrel. Did a great job at a great price. Lou **************** NRA Life Benefactor Member | |||
