Ahoy!
I'm looking for an outfit over there in the US to make some bolt action rifle samples.  I've not had a lot of luck with the contacts I had used in the past, they're either not having an FFL any more or too busy with other production.

Ideally a small shop with CNC capacity.  Job needs more than the manual lathe and drill press that a lot of gun tinkerers have.  Just need the receiver and bolt assembly, not any barrelling, furniture, or stocks at this stage, though that capability wouldn't be a disadvantage.

Since I'm doing this project from the other side of the planet there will be the need for NDA's etc, plus I may have a lawyer acting as my agent.

If you know anyone that might be interested, give me a shout :)

Cheers

Bruce

Longshot, as their firearms business is now closed...

But the Brown family are gun nuts of the highest order and sitting on some pretty impressive manufacturing capability.

Bruce,

Reach out to MIL-TFP-41 on eMastercam (or here too). They make bolts for a number of companies and they are VERY good at it. They even do a 3-Lug for somebody.

If they can't squeak it in, I've got another customer that has a MAM72-35V and Eurotech Multi-Tasking lathes. Between those machines, they can make any part on a gun besides the barrel. Currently the majority of their work is gun stuff.

P.S.S. The Hines Family (Owners) and Mike Edwards (My Boss) Max and Their entire group of Personnel are beyond reproach.

Truly Stellar.
