Is Chic still around? I tried his web site with no luck. I used to go their for a fix looking at nice wood.

Yep he is still around. Currently he is on the road heading to Trindad CO for two weeks of gunsmithing school.

This is his new website that I helped him put together we still have some things left to do. But it's much better than his old site.

Thanks!

It is break time in the salt mines here. I was heading over to the bookstore to get some carbide cutters.

BTW, you have to like a college bookstore where you can buy a rifled action (Argentine 1909) and carry it across campus without a swat team assaulting you.

I am doing an octagon barrel in 9.3X62 at present. I was hoping to do one, half round/half octagon but I did not buy a blank with enough meat on it to make the transitions look good. It will be a straight tapered octagon. The first week is dedicated to cutting and installing octagon barrels or just installing barrels. The second week is on tricking out Mauser actions.

Weather is a bit warmish here, in the high 90's to 100. Talk later, I have a lathe that is calling my name. It seems to get upset when I leave it alone.

Chic: when will you be back at your place? I dropped you an email regarding my stock. Bear season is but 45 days away! jorge

Jorge,
I was hoping to ship it before I left. I will get it off when I get back. Where is the bear hunt? I think they start here in September but I never seem to able to find them when I am equipped. Last Fall, my son and I went hunting and took a shotgun after grouse and all we saw was bear. The next weekend it was reversed, we had a rifle and all we saw was grouse, no bear.
