Well I finally got my stuff back.....and in top condition.

It had been so long I forgot what he had:

1. G33/40 with Argentine bottom metal, hollowed out- engraved bolt handle and set triggers. Walther Lothar barrel in .270 Win. All the metal done by none other than the Mauser guru himself J. Belk (ain't that a blast from the past- oughta tell you how long it's been gone- LOL)

2. Pre War Mod 70 long action in 300 Win with Krieger barrel, Blackburn bottom metal and custom bases for Conetrol rings done by Jim DuBell.

3. Inletted but not shaped piece of english I bought from Steve Heilman for the G33/40.

4. Beautiful nice & heavy piece of paradox for the mod. 70

5. Zeiss and Swarovski scopes.

All the metal is in the white and flawless. Only thing missing was one of the action screws for the mod 70.




There are two types of people in the world: those that get things done and those who make excuses. There are no others.

Bill Soverns, in my opinion, went off the reservation, BIG TIME.

I got my stuff back, but it was FUCKED! It was salvaged, but he had ZERO respect for other people's property. Glad you go yours back in good condition; I doubt others will have a similar experience.

Good riddence to him from the custom gun field.

If stupidity hurt, a lot of people would be walking around screaming...
