    where are Tuimans customs now? are there any left?

    Interested to see who still owns a tuiman custom, who held onto them?

    few years now and i don't see them coming up for sale and he did enough of them.

    where are all the cut up, carbon rigs now?

    Left handed by any chance?
    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds

    That was a pretty good shooter. I can't recall any problems I had with it. IIRC I fitted a HS Precision DBM to it? The Senator stock was a bit average.

    He AI'd my 7mm08 T3 and reamed a couple of dies to suit about 5 years ago and I still have it....probably wont part with it any time soon.
    From memory it was a 2 week turn around and reasonably priced.
