I have no idea if this would hold any interest for anyone in here but am posting for general information.

When considering US based operations of guides/outfitters, check and see if they are NRA members. If not, why support someone who doesn't support us? Consider spending your money elsewhere.

NEVER, EVER book a hunt with BLAIR WORLDWIDE HUNTING or JEFF BLAIR.

I have come to understand that in hunting, the goal is not the goal but the process.

Hey the opening bid is only $25. rotflmo

If I had something like that then I'd have to learn how to use it.


As usual just my $.02

There are actually several mills available, both CNC and manual. I searched through lots of different auctions from that link, and there is everything from diesel generators to full pallets of spent .223 brass. Different parts of the country of course. My experience with these types of auctions is that some VERY good buys can be had, unlike typical auctions sites...

Sold for $1640 plus 16%. Seems kind of cheap if it works, but this type of equipment is out of my area of knowledge.

That price is pretty close to correct, The control is not CNC it's a Proto trak which is a very Half Arsed CNC, It is far better then a manual machine but it's not say a Bridgeport with an R2E3 control even though it is old the machine was heavier and built as a cnc not a converted manual machine as this thing is.

I recall Gunmaker stating in a few of his posts that he uses a Prototrak to make some specialized parts for some of his custom rifles.
