Hey All,
looking for recommendations or any gunsmith in the Auckland area(preferably north) that can/willing to dis-assemble /re-assemble a BLR
Biggest city in NZ and has little to no gunsmiths...it's a dying trade.
Take it to Reloaders Supplies in Onehunga as their gunsmith does good work.
I would like to get my BLR service and thoroughly clean too in Auckland region.
Have you considered driving south to shooter ready in Cambridge …?
Use reloaders gunsmith. Hes very very good
If you really get stuck, let me know. I had the same problem. Noone wants to open up a blr.
I've posted about this before but many years ago i decided my BLR needed a good clean so pulled the action apart, quite easy just pop those pins out to remove the bolt etc. Well getting it back together is a whole different ball game !. I had to take it into my local gun shop who sent it away and when i got it back the bolt still wouldn't close properly so sent it back again . Finally got it sorted but NOT recommended to open up a BLR:thumbsup:Quote:

i pulled mine apart, buy in order to get the planetary gears etc correct i magnetised them, reassembled the gun then degaussed it.
I take them regularly appart for threading barrels. And put them back together and retime them no problem.
Call the office at Dpt during working hours if you want.
Jeez, that sounds a little extreme. I'm getting images of the terminator stuck to a magnet upside down!Quote:
