Hello Guys,
Just wanted to let you know where we are on our new C97 Falling Block. Serial Number #1, is back from bluing, and goes today to Gary Goudy for Checkering. Below are a couple of photo's taken yesterday. If you want to see it live and in person, we will be at the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation Show, Feb 23-26, booth #515.





PS For those of you wonder about our Mauser Project, we have started cutting steel. Cool

Outstanding rifle! I want to see the Mauser too.


"Experience" is the only class you take where the exam comes before the lesson.

Pretty cool, I must say. How do you handle the barrel change? Interupted thread?

The barrels are changed by removing the breech block, removing the key from the forend (you can’t see it in the photo because of the flash glare), unscrewing the barrel and changing the extractor if necessary, then reversing the process. We provide the tools necessary to do this in the field.
