How many custom Mausers have you built?

I guess you never noticed that sticky at the top of this forum for the last 3 years.
I build receivers, including mauser receivers from 4140 bar stock, commercially heat treated to 36Rc and then machined in that hardened state, about 150ksi yield strength.

You polish up receivers someone else made of steel with less strength then the cheapest Chinese grade 2 bolt out of the hardware store bulk bin.
Then call yourself "gunmaker". LOL

I have zero fear of SAAMI proof loads and would enjoy proofing my receivers if I could find them, just like most US manufacturers do, or did.

Anyway, after 10 years of meth night at the Alzheimer center, with zero content of substance, unfocused topics and worshipping of the butter soft steel it is time for me to shove off for Speerchucker Island.

So bye!

So I bought a Chilean from the Hensley's that was turned to a small ring. I chambered it in 250 Savage. Is it going to be a bomb? I've hunted it a couple times and it shoots great.

And to somehow compare himself with Speerchucker, laughable. Speerchucker actually meant well with everything he posted.

Doug's motives were different, he was trying to convince every Mauser owner on here to rush off and buy one of his homemade receivers.

Actually, anyone who thinks that the old military actions of 100 years ago, made of questionable steel, guess-and-by-color heat treating and single stage manufacture are better than the clones coming out of the plants like Norinco which are made with modern steel on CNC equipment. Well you guys are just fooling yourselves. Yes the stuff of old was good in its day and often cleaned up a lot nicer than the 240 belt finish that the Chinese leave on the exposed surfaces. As far as strength and tolerances go, modern manufacture wins hands down. There is an old saying: "No mater how much you polish a turd. It's still a turd!"

^More projecting and dishonest jackassery.
I have no desire to be a gunsmith, or manufacturer, or sell any gun product to anyone, nor take on the liability.

From a thread when asked if I wanted to sell a Rem broached blank,
Well to be honest, I don't think I would make any money with my old manual machines and process. If I sold a blank for $150 I would probably net $20/hr. lol
More likely is I will make up 10-12 for myself and sell off all the broaches, reamers etc and someone else can go in the biz or make what they want and pass it on.

SC and I are on the same page when it comes to mauser metallurgy and heat treatment.

Does that qualify you to be able to carry Speerchucker's jock strap> I think not!

I see at least ten pages! Seriously, how long do you have to post posts like this before you're allowed to post pics? Maybe I'm missing something but this ancient format I'm too modern for. I'm having a flashback that I cannot connect with...as in posting X times stupid things to gain some sort of credibility in order to GASP! upload a pic?
