    It's always a bit of a gamble/risk taking a step into the custom built rifle world I've seen some really nice ones and some total disasters one thing that comes into play as I've found with building engines and cars for people is they get this idea of what they want ask you to build it this way and after listening to what they want you try and explain to them the risks of doing it that way ad it either wont work or your building a hand grenade and suggest something that will work but they insist on doing it their way so you go ahead with their instructions and hello it doesn't work or didn't even make it through the run in then for some reason it's my fault not saying its the case here but it does happen

    @mikee , glad you got it finally sorted, a shame the experience and enjoyment of getting something special turned into a disappointment and negative event.
    Lest you can move on now without this in the background.

    You definitely weren't wrong mate, sounds like a prick of a situation.

    Probably because your ""gunsmith" was using a non EP hammer. Sorry could not resist. Sorted bro. Tumeke.

    My dealings with Greg have always been without frustration and the one gunsmith issue was sorted quick smart and a lot better than some of the better known TV and suppressor stars in the N.I.

    Hi all and its been a interesting and sad read.
    First of all i hope you are all safe and well!!
    Please dont be offended at some comments im about to share,
    Here in the UK we have similar as in rifle bolters on and what we like to call riflesmiths - riflesmiths not only building rifles but can solve and sort problems and still turn out quality work!!
    These rifles must be safe and fit for purpose too!!!
    If you pay good money for a quality product then thats what you should get and after all its your hard earned money , that may of tooks months or even years to scrimp and save to get the funds!!!
    Unfortunately the rifle bolters on expect to charge the same as the quality riflesmiths!!!
    We have had similar stories here too where money has been paid and excuses come!!! , yes there are 2 sides to every story and when you build up a great reputation of a business , it makes good business to keep that reputation or run the risk of going down the pan!!!
    Just glad to hear you got it sorted and just a shame it cost you more to sort!!
    Stay safe all.
