Looking for a gunsmith with AR series experience who can turn around one of the AR calibers in next 3-6 months built on a Ruger M2 Magnum. Jeffe suggested posting here.

Its inherently uncomplex to take a mag boltfaced ruger to a 416, 458, or 470 AR .. Having a recoil lug on the barrel is a great, in my opinion required, thing to do. A good bedding, crossbolting, and a wrist pin are key to the longivity of the stock.

Could the smiths on the forum who can turn around a Ruger M2 Magnum in any of the AR calibers within the next 3-6 months ( per Jeffe's specs above ) please post contact info. My smith is at least a year out.

Thanks

Might also post in gunsmithing .. I can supply the reamer, gages, and dummies.. the 416, 458, and 470 are easy to do with a ruger.. the 500 requires more feeding!

not for hire, Jeffe quit. I only do any work for me, and I stay frustrated that I can't make my own time lines ..

Kobe is your man, and I'll send him the reamers and gages.

You two should explain this inside joke before the rest of the people in here think you're crazier than you are......if that's possible. Wink

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.
