Bottom Metal Question
Good Day,

Could anyone advise on a place to purchase a bottom metal for a mauser 98 - 30.06?

I am looking for someone who will be able to export to South Africa.

Regards
MD

Weibe? Swift? Sunny Hill? One or two must have an export license.

Sunny Hill, Recknagel. The SA gunsmiths will import for you.

It's an easy operation to modify an original Mauser box to 30-06 length, one of those same gunsmiths should be able to do it for a fraction of the cost of one of those customs.

Any other leads as to which gunsmith has an export license?

Export licenses are very costly here in the States and not many people have them. Try Griffin and Howe.

Good luck!
